FIMBRA is no longer in being -
please refer to the Financial Services Authority (FSA) for further information
PIA Rule Book - Adopted Rules of Fimbra (The FIMBRA Rules as at 1 July 1994, as subsequently amended)
SIB revoked the recognition of The Financial Intermediaries, Managers and Brokers Regulatory Association (FIMBRA) as a Self-Regulatory Organisation (SRO) in June 1994.
Revocation was made subject to a transitional wind-down period to provide for continuity of regulation whilst members moved to the Personal Investment Authority (PIA).
As the length of this transition could not be forecast with certainty the revocation orders set an initial deadline of 1 October 1995, with discretion for SIB to shorten or extend it.
The PIA is carrying out the remaining regulatory responsibilities in accordance with an agreement entered into with FIMBRA.
PIA's admission procedures in respect of firms previously authorised by FIMBRA will be completed shortly, according to the PIA's Report and Financial Statements for the year ending 31 March 1998.
In January 1999, it was reported in the press that FIMBRA's last member, London broker Hoodless Brennan, had joined the SFA.
The FSA therefore derecognised FIMBRA.
FIMBRA was incorporated as THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF SECURITY DEALERS AND INVESTMENT MANAGERS under company registration number SC068138 on 25th May 1979, changed its name to THE FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARIES, MANAGERS AND BROKERS REGULATORY ASSOCIATION on 9th July 1986 and was dissolved on 2nd June 2000
