"You'd never be able to do this on the FCA Register" – RegTech Sales Leader
Media-featured, enterprise-trusted.
If they're FCA or SEC authorised, they're in here.
Hackford combines FCA firm coverage with SEC-registered investment advisers (RIAs) and exempt reporting advisers (ERAs), making it easy to identify dual-regulated businesses.
The FCA and SEC have the data. But they aren't built for targeting.
You can't search for "firms like my best customers", spot dual-regulated businesses, or get alerts when relevant firms get authorised. That's what Hackford does.
