A firm must designate a person as its COLP and a person as its COFA and the SRA must approve that person before they commence their role.
The COLP and COFA of a firm have specific responsibility for ensuring a firm, its managers and employees comply with the SRA's regulatory requirements. They are also responsible for recording any breaches and reporting those to the SRA, where necessary.
A firm must promptly notify the SRA if it becomes aware of any material changes to information previously provided to the SRA, by it or on its behalf, including to its compliance officers.
Hibernian Private Client Limited failed to:
