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.
  • Goldwood Health Ltd (FRN 486304) is an AR of WPA Healthcare Practice Plc (FRN 757721). When you use Goldwood Health's services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.
  • Example: if you take financial advice from Goldwood Health, complaints and compensation usually follow the same rules as dealing with the principal, but this depends on the product and your circumstances.
