Apply for authorisation

As part of the authorisation application process, FI reviews the firm's capital situation, business plan, owners and management. Parts of the firm's daily operations may also require authorisation from FI.

How your application is processed

• An application becomes a task and is assigned a reference number.
• An administrator is appointed as responsible for the task and you receive confirmation with a reference number (in writing or verbally) that your application arrived at FI.
• After the application fee has been paid, the administrator reviews the application to check that it is complete.
• If anything is missing, FI will request supplementary information. It is also sometimes necessary to gather information from other authorities.
• Multiple persons at FI with different areas of expertise may be involved in the assessment process.
• Once the application is complete and of good quality, FI makes a decision in the matter. A copy of the decision is sent to you. All information related to the task is saved and recorded in FI's register.
