  • ST JOSEPH'S INDEPENDENT HOSPITAL LIMITED (FRN 1047885) is an AR of CLEARFC LTD (FRN 938464). When you use ST JOSEPH'S INDEPENDENT HOSPITAL's services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.
  • Example: if you take financial advice from ST JOSEPH'S INDEPENDENT HOSPITAL, complaints and compensation usually follow the same rules as dealing with the principal, but this depends on the product and your circumstances.
