  • AIRCRAFT RISK COMPANY (LONDON) LIMITED (FRN 1049170) is an AR of Independent Broking Solutions Limited (FRN 312026). When you use AIRCRAFT RISK COMPANY (LONDON)'s services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm.

Website, phone number and address

Compare these against whatever you were given. Scammers clone real firm names and reference numbers but use their own phone number and website, so a detail that does not match the register is the clearest warning sign there is.
