Tailored compliance solutions for hedge funds and private equity firms
About us
Comsura is a compliance consultancy for regulated firms. We provide bespoke solutions for the clients we work with. Our intention is to partner with firms, integrate into their place of work and be part of their business. We consider ourselves as in-house compliance. We allocate dedicated time spent at their office doing work for them and them only. As ‘in house compliance,’ it is our job to ensure the compliance framework and overall compliance programme are fit for purpose and specific to the clients we work for. We don’t take a tick-the-box approach of one size fits all. We can help at any level: for the smaller firms who don’t have a dedicated compliance person but need some dedicated compliance support or for the larger firm who have everything in place but doesn’t have the time to ensure the day-to-day compliance activities are getting done. We recognise the blurred lines of compliance, and we don’t say, ‘We can’t’ or ‘we don’t do that’. We understand small firms need to be nimble and able to crossover roles and responsibilities. Our experienced team know a lot about compliance, we know we don’t know everything, but we know how to find the answers you need. If you want to find out more about the services we offer, please get in touch with us hello@comsura.com

The #FCA's latest press release reveals gaps in monitoring #AppointedRepresentatives (ARs). Principals must ensure robust documentation, avoid 'tick-box' oversight, and conduct thorough annual reviews. #Compliance requires proactive monitoring and clear #ARAgreements to avoid regulatory breaches. Failure to meet these standards may prompt swift FCA action. Stay vigilant and maintain rigorous oversight. Read more about the FCA’s findings and recommendations here: https://lnkd.in/ecXC6sZg

Last week, the #FCA released their annual report and, on the same day, was represented at the #FinancialCrimeSummit in London. Both the annual report and Sarah Pritchard’s speech at the summit emphasised how the FCA’s latest initiatives reinforce robust #Compliance systems' critical role in combatting #FinancialCrime. #UKRegulatedFirms must ensure their #AntiMoneyLaundering processes meet the FCA’s heightened standards as the regulator focuses on data led enforcement and targeted interventions. With the FCA's assertive stance, it's essential for firms to be proactive and align themselves with these expectations. Stay compliant.

The recent reports of the FCA’s handling of #WhistleBlower information highlight the fact that #Whistleblowing continues to be a vital mechanism for maintaining integrity within regulated firms. Recent figures show 253 whistleblowing reports in Q2 of this year alone, 135 of which focus on #Compliance. These statistics show that firms must remain vigilant in establishing and reviewing effective whistleblowing frameworks. Clear policies should be in place, with regular reviews and thorough training, to align with the FCA’s standards and maintain a culture of trust, compliance, and integrity. Our experienced team is here to support your firm in navigating these challenges. Reach out to Comsura.

Recent reports on the FCA's alleged mishandling of whistle-blower information has exposed lapses in #Confidentiality and #Governance. An ex-employee’s confidential complaint was mishandled, with unredacted details shared internally without consent. Such breaches serve as an important reminder of the need to have comprehensive #WhistleblowingPolicies and procedures in place that protect confidentiality, ensure transparency in addressing #Misconduct claims, and comply with all #DataProtection obligations. The FCA's ongoing internal reviews suggest increased scrutiny of how firms manage sensitive disclosures. Firms must review and strengthen their #Compliance frameworks, particularly regarding #WhistleblowerProtections – not only as a regulatory obligation but as a key component of maintaining trust and transparency. Connect with Comsura on LinkedIn for up-to-date insights on the ongoing story.
