Financial promotions - make sure you know if you are issuing them, whether you should be (or can do), and if someone else authorised (should be) signing off on these... You could be breaking UK law. Ignorance is not a defence. And punishments could lead to a fine, jail, or both...see sections 21 and 25 of the Financial Services and Markets Act (FSMA).
Promoting opportunities to invest in the UK just got a little harder... As of today (7 February 2024), firms need FCA permission to approve financial promotions for unauthorised persons. Lets give some context (in plain language-ish). A financial promotion is an 'invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity'. Whether that is buying shares, investing in a fund, ISA or even signing up for a financial service. A financial promotion can take place in a myriad of ways, from glossy brochures, billboards and shop windows, pamphlets, websites and the social media of your choice (yes, Tik Tok). And cold calling, radio, TV ('real time' promotions). So, reference a specific investment/service (or more than one), and in the context of that communication suggest you should/could/it would be a good idea to get involved...even subtly. It's quite possibly a promotion. We've simpified for brevity. But you cant just make these communications without consideration. There is a general restriction. To put it more formally - The financial promotion restriction in section 21 (s21) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (FSMA) means that a person must not communicate an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (or claims management activity), unless: - the person is an authorised person, ie generally authorised by the FCA or the Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) under Part 4A of FSMA to carry on certain regulated activities; - the promotion has been approved by an authorised person, ie a s21 approver, who is lawfully able to approve that promotion; or - an exemption in the Financial Promotion Order 2005 (FPO) applies At this point we normally get a range of comments: - But what about journalists? - Is Google {or other search providers} a financial promotion? - Ahh, that cant be true because listed companies say things all the time The fact is, legislators created a raft of exemptions under the FPO (the third option in the list above) so that normal life carried on, and that those providing the internets 'plumbing', printing services, company directors, journalists and such could carry on (within respectable limits). There are also exemptons for high net worth/sophisticated investors (i.e., consumers/retail) under the FPO, but as of 31st January they got a little harder to rely on (see ComplyCraft Consulting's posts on this). So...unless you are an authorised Firm (or appointed representative), you are restricted. And now, it is going to be even more difficult for unauthorised entities to issue promotions, because only a small number of authorised firms can approve the financial promotions for these entities. And do expect the FCA to scrutinise promotional activity...there is not much point in changing the law without enforcement...! As ever - unsure? Speak to the experts. https://lnkd.in/eV-zH8kB
