cancel IL’s Part 4A permission.

4.
Accordingly, the Authority has today cancelled IL’s Part 4A permission.

DEFINITIONS

5.
The definitions below are used in this Final Notice:

“the Act” means the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000;

“the Authority” means the Financial Conduct Authority;

“the Decision Notice” means the Decision Notice issued IL dated 5 May
2020;

“IL” means Inovtrix Ltd;


“the Return” means the CCR-Complaints Return, CCR001 Consumer Credit data
(Financial Data), CCR002 Consumer Credit data (Volumes) and CCR003 Consumer
credit data(Lenders) returns for the period ended 31 March 2019, which IL was due
to submit to the Authority by 15 May 2019;

“IL’s Part 4A permission” means the permission granted by the Authority to
IL pursuant to Part 4A of the Act;

“the suitability Threshold Condition” means the Threshold Condition set out in
paragraph 2E of Schedule 6 to the Act;

“the Threshold Conditions” means the threshold conditions set out in Schedule 6

“the Tribunal” means the Upper Tribunal (Tax and Chancery Chamber); and

“the Warning Notice” means the Warning Notice issued to IL dated 8 April

REASONS FOR ACTION

6.
On the basis of the facts and matters and conclusions described in the Warning
Notice and in the Decision Notice, it appears to the Authority that IL is failing to
satisfy the suitability Threshold Condition, in that the Authority is not satisfied that
IL is a fit and proper person having regard to all the circumstances, including
whether IL managed its business in such a way as to ensure that its affairs were
conducted in a sound and prudent manner.

7.
This is because IL has failed to comply with the regulatory requirement to submit
the Return. IL has not been open and co-operative in all its dealings with the
Authority, in that IL has failed to respond adequately to the Authority's repeated
requests for it to submit the Return, and has thereby failed to comply with Principle
11 of the Authority's Principles for Businesses and to satisfy the Authority that it is
ready, willing and organised to comply with the requirements and standards under
the regulatory system.

8.
These failures, which are significant in the context of IL’s suitability, lead the
Authority to conclude that IL has failed to manage its business in such a way as to
ensure that its affairs are conducted in a sound and prudent manner, that it is not
a fit and proper person, and that it is therefore failing to satisfy the Threshold
Conditions in relation to the regulated activities for which IL was granted a Part 4A
permission.
