FINANCIAL SERVICES AND MARKETS

This Order amends the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Regulated Activities) Order 2001 (S.I. 2001/544) (“the principal Order”). The principal Order specifies kinds of activities and investments for the purposes of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (c. 8). When an activity of a specified kind is carried on by way of business in relation to an investment of a specified kind, it is a “regulated activity” for the purposes of that Act. Section 19 of that Act prohibits persons who are not authorised or exempt from carrying on, or purporting to carry on, any regulated activity in the United Kingdom.
