Introducer appointed representative

Government Commercial Organisation (GCO) can only introduce you to their principal, and cannot give financial advice, recommend products, or arrange deals alone.

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.
  • Government Commercial Organisation (GCO) (FRN 1014834) introduces customers to Cycle Solutions (Cycle to Work) Limited (FRN 722968). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not Government Commercial Organisation (GCO).
  • Example: if Government Commercial Organisation (GCO) refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from Government Commercial Organisation (GCO) 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.
