What does this mean?
  • An appointed representative (AR) can carry out regulated financial services, but is not directly authorised by the FCA. A principal firm holds the authorisation and is legally responsible for the AR's conduct.
  • THE HEARING CARE PARTNERSHIP LIMITED (FRN 1050506) is an AR of CLEARFC LTD (FRN 938464). When you use THE HEARING CARE PARTNERSHIP's services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.
  • Example: if you take financial advice from THE HEARING CARE PARTNERSHIP, complaints and compensation usually follow the same rules as dealing with the principal, but this depends on the product and your circumstances.
