  • Maxus (North West) Ltd (FRN 1042202) introduces customers to One Funding Ltd (FRN 1040483). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not Maxus (North West).
  • Example: if Maxus (North West) refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from Maxus (North West) itself.
