Responsible principal firm
Apax Partners LLP Reference number: 222963 View firm →What does this mean?
- An appointed representative (AR) can carry out regulated financial services, but is not directly authorised by the FCA. A principal firm holds the authorisation and is legally responsible for the AR's conduct.
- Apax Partners Fund Services Ltd (FRN 817477) is an AR of Apax Partners LLP (FRN 222963). When you use Apax Partners Fund Services's services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.
- Example: if you take financial advice from Apax Partners Fund Services, complaints and compensation usually follow the same rules as dealing with the principal, but this depends on the product and your circumstances.
- Before you proceed, confirm contact details match the official FCA register for both firms. Scammers sometimes clone legitimate AR names and FRNs but use fake phone numbers and websites.
