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.
  • Wessex Association of Chambers of Commerce (FRN 597319) introduces customers to Wiltshire Friendly Society Limited (FRN 110053). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not Wessex Association of Chambers of Commerce.
  • Example: if Wessex Association of Chambers of Commerce refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from Wessex Association of Chambers of Commerce 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.
