Key provisions

In practice — how Polaris handles it

Banks and counterparties sometimes ask a client for a letter from the CMA, and we budget the fee when we request it. Polaris is not licensed by the CMA; we explain what the regulator can certify, coordinate with the CMA portal and licensed advisers on the request, and keep the client's corporate, UBO and AML records in order.
