Appointed representative

This firm does not hold FCA authorisation of its own. It acts under a principal firm, which is legally responsible for its regulated business.

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.
  • West Coast (Triumph) Ltd (FRN 989648) is an AR of WEST COAST (GLASGOW) LIMITED (FRN 717621). When you use West Coast (Triumph)'s services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.
  • Example: if you take financial advice from West Coast (Triumph), complaints and compensation usually follow the same rules as dealing with the principal, but this depends on the product and your circumstances.
  • 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.
