520 _aDiscusses the new regulations that will be introduced from January 2005 for any firm that deals with insurance. Gives examples of activities that fall within the new regulations including, contractors who obtain insurance on behalf of, or handle claims, for other parties and anyone arranging insurance for joint ventures. Notes that many businesses and professions are calculating that if the new regulations apply to them, in many cases they are applying for FSA authorisation so they can continue to provide insurance services after the deadline. There are some limitations to the scope of the regime, such as a business providing insurance mediation and becoming an appointed representative of a principal; that is of a principal of a business already authorised by the FSA such as an insurance company.
