A Seamless Approach
to SMCR

Our team has experience advising a range of authorised entities in this area, including on the extension of the SMCR specifically. We can provide practical guidance on implementation for your firm, and insight into market-standard practices.

We are able to flexibly support you to reflect your firm’s business needs: from running your entire implementation project using a mix of our legal and consulting offering, providing legal advice on the key requirements for you to implement, or via our SMCR Toolkit to help you implement your own project.
