  • 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.
  • Wakefield Mortgages Ltd (FRN 1051059) is an AR of Cornerstone Finance Group Ltd (FRN 767202). When you use Wakefield Mortgages's services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.
  • Example: if you take financial advice from Wakefield Mortgages, complaints and compensation usually follow the same rules as dealing with the principal, but this depends on the product and your circumstances.
