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.
  • Central Scanning Limited (FRN 1034514) introduces customers to Genesis Capital (Finance & Leasing) Limited (FRN 679618). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not Central Scanning.
  • Example: if Central Scanning refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from Central Scanning 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.
