Words from our clients
UKGI were enlisted to help with our FCA application for consumer credit permissions. They helped us build all the relevant documents needed along with the submission process on the FCA website. They have made the whole process smooth and easy for us, with their wide range of knowledge and helpful and efficient attitude to the task in hand. Their advice has been invaluable, and we would recommend them to anyone.
Alan Dunn – Director
Specialist 4 Finance Ltd
“As an AR transitioning to becoming Directly Authorised, UKGI took the mystery out of the FCA application process for us. Since then, we’ve significantly expanded our business and the products and services we offer customers; the ongoing relationship we’ve built with Dave, Kirsten, Steve, Chris and the rest of the team at UKGI, coupled with the knowledge and support provided, has been invaluable. Guidance and feedback always considers what will be most helpful for our business whilst also enhance the outcomes of our customers. We wholeheartedly recommend the support of UKGI! Thank you!”
Liz Hopper – Chief Executive Officer
Harry Hall International Limited
“Eighteen months ago, we decided to do a compliance review and having worked with UKGI and Rick Double previously, we asked them to carry out an external review of our sales process and compliance oversight arrangements, for Board reassurance. We had a twelve month project plan put into place and have continued to work with UKGI ever since. Rick and all of the team have always been most helpful, professional and pay particular attention to detail, which gives our business the confidence to know we are on top of our compliance”.
Philippa Stapleton – HR & Compliance Officer
R A Cowen & Partners
“We are a growing AR network as well as a provider of compliance systems to motor dealers and, for several years now, UKGI has been supporting us in carrying out due diligence on prospective ARs and their key personnel. Their service is fast and efficient and helps us evidence robust controls. We also regularly use their technical helpline and have found their expert advice invaluable for talking us through practical solutions to any questions we have. I would definitely recommend their services.”

“We used UKGI to help with our FCA application for consumer credit. We found them very efficient and helpful, they made it easy for us to ask any questions we wanted and they gave us straightforward practical advice. UKGI smoothed the whole process for us and we would definitely recommend them to others, in fact we have done so more than once.”

“Crixus Insurance Brokers have worked with UKGI for approximately three years now and we have been more than happy with their professionalism and knowledge on all compliance matters – their team is always friendly and keen to assist.”
Simon Davey – Managing Director
Crixus (London) Limited
“I first made contact with UKGI in 2008/9 when I was appointed CEO of Kay International Plc, which was a client of UKGI. I was greeted with a completely professional team of people who were helpful and could anticipate my needs. Over the years UKGI became an indispensable feature of our compliance strategy. In 2015, I set up my own business, Marigold Arasay Services Limited and contracted with UKGI to provide the new company with the same level of personal support and commitment to which I had become accustomed at Kay and to navigate us through the full FCA recognition for the new company. We remain loyal customers of this professional team.”
David Forrest – Managing Director
Marigold Arasay Services Limited

Leon Moye – Director

“UKGI supported us to move from AR status to direct authorisation and beyond. Their expertise helped to ensure that our application was successful, and they have given support and reassurance to ensure our processes and procedures are compliant and our front end application meets regulatory expectations. They continue to provide up to date knowledge translated into pragmatic business advice.”
