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.
  • Lawrence Rand Ltd (FRN 802208) introduces customers to Global Property Ventures Limited (FRN 797026). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not Lawrence Rand.
  • Example: if Lawrence Rand refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from Lawrence Rand 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.
