Appointed representative

This firm does not hold FCA authorisation of its own. It acts under a principal firm, which is legally responsible for its regulated business.

The FCA register does not name a principal for this 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.
  • Clearview Credit & Financial Risks Limited (FRN 613746) is listed as an appointed representative, but the register does not show its principal firm here. Find the principal on the FCA register before dealing with this firm.
  • Example: if you take financial advice from Clearview Credit & Financial Risks, 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.
