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.
  • Second Life Financial Planning Limited (FRN 1003810) introduces customers to Smith and Wardle Financial Consultants LLP (FRN 912090). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not Second Life Financial Planning.
  • Example: if Second Life Financial Planning refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from Second Life Financial Planning 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.
