Holborn Assets has been given the green light from the UK ’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to resume operations in the UK. International Investment can reveal that the Dubai-based financial advisory firm, which has an office in Manchester, will recommence work immediately as a UK-regulated independent financial adviser. Alongside about 60 other financial companies – including Selectapension and deVere’s UK business, to name a few – the UK arm of Holborn Assets temporarily halted operations in the country, while it worked with the FCA to agree to a new process by which it conducted its defined benefit pension transfer business.
