Find out what permissions you'll need to apply to us for authorisation, and what we expect to see in your application.
We refer to you as a secondary credit broker if credit broking isn't your main business. For example, yacht brokers sometimes introduce their customers, or someone connected to the sale or purchase of a yacht, to a lender so the sale can be completed. We call this secondary broking.

You'll need to submit a range of supporting material[2] as part of your application. Please check which forms to complete and the other documentation required before you start your application.
