General information

 

  1. Take TCF seriously – once engaged small firms can make quick progress

  2. Focus on the outcomes

  3. Engage with us – we want to work with you

  4. Be clear about the March and December 2008 deadlines and what they mean for your firm – those firms that miss the December deadline and fail to take their obligations seriously will face more regulatory intervention

  5. Work through the Small Firm Management Behaviours Framework – do you have the right culture and management behaviours in place?

  6. If not, use the good and poor practice to help you and take action

  7. Look at our Guide to Management Information – are you making best use of your firm's MI?

  8. If not, use the tools available to help you and take action

  9. Familiarise yourself with the findings from our thematic work and see how they fit together into the overall context of TCF - see where they inter-relate and how working on one can simultaneously help with the other. 

  10. Act now – don't delay.
