What does this mean?
  • An introducer appointed representative can only pass your details to its principal firm. It cannot recommend products, give financial advice, or arrange deals on its own.
  • Bourne Estate Agents Limited (FRN 524233) introduces customers to Global Property Ventures Limited (FRN 797026). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not Bourne Estate Agents.
  • Example: if Bourne Estate Agents refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from Bourne Estate Agents itself.
  • 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.
