A mortgage network is an organisation that is directly authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
The network is responsible for following the rules and regulations laid out by the FCA and puts systems and processes in place to ensure that its members stay within those rules. The network acts as a regulatory umbrella for its members.
An Appointed Representative (AR) is a person or firm who acts as an agent of a directly authorised organisation (such as a mortgage network) to carry out regulated activity (such as giving mortgage advice).
When you join a mortgage network, you become an Appointed Representative of that network. The network is responsible for following the rules and regulations laid out by the FCA and puts systems and processes in place to ensure that its members stay within those rules. The network acts as a regulatory umbrella for its members.
An Appointed Representative (AR) belongs to a network, so it is the network’s responsibility to ensure that the AR adheres to the FCA’s regulations.
They will do this by having a compliance regime in place, providing updates about rule changes and training where necessary, and by having systems and processes that make sure regulations are followed.
This takes the burden of keeping on top of regulatory changes away from the AR, allowing them to concentrate on helping clients and writing business.
Being directly authorised means that an individual or firm is directly authorised to carry out regulated activity by the FCA. A person or firm who is directly authorised does not belong to a network.
If you’re looking to launch your own mortgage advisory business while benefiting from the backing of an experienced network, we’re here to equip you with all the tools for success. From regulatory support and promotional resources to access to suitable mortgage products, we’ll ensure you start your journey with confidence.
