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.
Responsible principal firm
Assurity Solutions Ltd Reference number: 517510 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.
- Furrows Limited (FRN 507713) is an AR of Assurity Solutions Ltd (FRN 517510). When you use Furrows's services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.
- Example: if you take financial advice from Furrows, 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.
Same company
This company holds another FCA record
A company can hold several FCA records, covering different parts of its business, and each one carries its own permissions and protection. The reference number you were given decides which record applies to you.
Identity
Check their details
Compare these against whatever you were given. Scammers clone real firm names and reference numbers but use their own phone number and website, so a detail that does not match the register is the clearest warning sign there is.
