Introducer appointed representative

This firm can only introduce you to its principal, and cannot give financial advice, recommend products, or arrange deals alone.

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.
  • The Down Under Centre (FRN 971002) introduces customers to Go Walkabout Limited (FRN 580218). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not The Down Under Centre.
  • Example: if The Down Under Centre refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from The Down Under Centre 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.
