Offences

The FSA is responsible for the investigation of a variety of different criminal offences in addition to its regulatory role. These investigations can involve what the FSA term a "perimeter breach" which involves a situation where an unauthorised person has carried out a regulated activity; market rigging, insider share dealing, as well as other offences including cases of misleading or obstructing an FSA investigation.

The offences that the FSA prosecutes carry varying penalties which can include substantial prison sentences for those convicted.

If you are asked for information or form the subject of an investigation, you should contact us immediately. We really can make a difference.
