REASONS FOR THE 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 Mr White is
failing to satisfy the suitability Threshold Condition, in that the Authority is not
satisfied that Mr White is a fit and proper person having regard to all the
circumstances, including whether Mr White managed his business in such a way
as to ensure that his affairs were conducted in a sound and prudent manner.


7.
Mr White has failed to pay the Overdue Balance and he has not been open and
co-operative in all his dealings with the Authority, in that Mr White has failed to
respond to the Authority’s repeated requests for him to pay the Overdue Balance,
and has thereby failed to comply with Principle 11 of the Principles and to satisfy
the Authority that he is ready, willing and organised to comply with the
requirements and standards of the regulatory system.


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