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.

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.
  • London Insurance Market Exchange Limited (FRN 584432) is an AR of Onyx Insurance Brokers Limited (FRN 838181). When you use London Insurance Market Exchange's services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.
  • Example: if you take financial advice from London Insurance Market Exchange, 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.
