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.
  • North Yorkshire Hospice Care (FRN 1057069) introduces customers to SME HCI Limited (FRN 626422). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not North Yorkshire Hospice Care.
