Building T&C Scheme for Compliance Confidence

Sector: Wealth Management / IFA Network
Role: Strategic & Compliance Consultant
Service Areas: Governance · People Development · Regulatory Readiness

The Challenge

An IFA network had grown quickly but was relying on outdated, inconsistent T&C practices. Supervisors were overwhelmed, records were fragmented, and the business lacked confidence in demonstrating competence across its advisers. With Consumer Duty and SMCR intensifying the spotlight, action was needed.

Our Approach

  • Reviewed the full training, supervision, and CPD landscape across the network
  • Designed a modern, risk-sensitive T&C scheme aligned to FCA expectations and internal culture
  • Created clear roles and responsibilities for supervisors, with practical, scalable oversight tools
  • Developed supporting materials: supervision templates, matrix, and MI dashboard & delivered workshops and 1-to-1 training to embed confidence and consistency in the new approach

The Outcome

  • A fully documented, defensible T&C framework aligned to both business needs and FCA scrutiny
  • Supervisors equipped with the tools, clarity, and structure to support adviser development
  • Improved compliance MI — leadership now had clear visibility into competence across the firm
  • A confident, upskilled oversight culture supporting good advice and regulatory readiness
“It’s the first time we’ve felt confident about how we manage competence and the first time the team’s actually felt supported doing it.” — Head of Compliance (anonymous)
