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.
  • CarpusMedia Ab (FRN 993106) introduces customers to Visionary Markets Ltd (FRN 710569). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not CarpusMedia Ab.
