The FCA register does not name a principal for this firm.

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.
  • Kareem Al-Ghazo (FRN 920805) is listed as an introducer appointed representative, but the register does not show its principal firm here. Check the FCA register before sharing your details.
