What is the APCC?
The Association of Professional Compliance Consultants, or APCC, is the body for compliance consultants who advise firms regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority in the UK.
We provide assistance to other services providers involved in the regulated sector who wish to benefit from the APCC’s expertise and ongoing technical dialogue with the FCA and its members via our affiliated firm service.

The APCC issues mailings on matters affecting compliance consultants, holds forum events to discuss topical issues in the compliance field and liaises with the FCA on these issues.
The APCC meets regularly with the FCA and provides a communication channel between the FCA and compliance consultants.
The APCC is active in enhancing the professional standards of compliance consultants and is recognised as a trade body by the FCA.

Compliance consultancy firms who support the APCC's objectives are eligible to become members of the APCC. Membership gives priority booking at APCC events, improved access to the FCA and enhanced professional standing.
