One supervisory condition set by the FCA
These are conditions the FCA places on the firm itself, covering things like capital it must hold and what it must report. They do not change what the firm may do for you.
- CPMI Requirement
The firm is only permitted to carry on the activities specified in FUND 1.4.3R (1) to (6) or any successor provision
FCA disciplinary action and complaints
No FCA disciplinary action.

- Cash at bank
