FSA website links on one page
Our motor retailer pages should be your first port of call for news and information, but the rest of the FSA site is essential for everyday business. To help you we've put the most useful links on this page.
Authorisation
Check our authorisation pages if:
- you want to start or stop doing regulated business;
- you take on new staff;
- have changes of staff responsibility; or
- if you want to change your business' legal structure (eg from partnership to limited company).
How do I get authorised?

The FSA Handbook of Rules and Guidance
You can build your own handbook by answering ten questions on our website. This will leave you with a shorter handbook, that strips out the rules that don't apply to your type of firm.
Some of the questions may be hard to understand. Read our guide to words the FSA uses if you get stuck, or call our contact centre.
Another way of seeing the main rules that will apply to your firm is to use our new key rules document. This aims to put all the rules for people that sell insurance to the public in one place, with added explanation to make them easier to use.
