Review the relevant pathway. Start with the Innovation Pathways page, FAQs and approved guidance to determine whether you need general innovation intake, regulatory clarification or a specific challenge/programme route.
Prepare your proposal. Describe the innovation, problem, target users, operating model, technology, data use, consumer impact, risk controls, current maturity and the outcome you are seeking from FSIC.
Complete the submission form. Provide all mandatory information and upload supporting documentation in the approved formats.
Review before sending. Confirm that the information is complete, accurate and suitable for submission. Do not upload unnecessary personal or highly confidential information.
Submit and retain your reference number. Use the confirmation to track the engagement and respond to any clarification requests.
Await screening and routing. FSIC may seek clarification, route the matter to an appropriate internal function, or advise that a different formal regulatory pathway is required.
Review the feedback. Treat written feedback as engagement guidance unless it expressly constitutes a formal decision or approval issued under the relevant authority and process.
