Andrew Joseph Black

Andrew Joseph Black (FRN 971763) is not directly authorised. It is an appointed representative acting under the responsibility of a directly authorised principal firm.

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. Andrew Joseph Black (FRN 971763) is an AR of QLP Limited (FRN 305967). When you use Andrew Joseph Black's services, the FCA authorisation sits with the principal firm. Example: if you take financial advice from Andrew Joseph Black, 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.

The FCA register lists the phone number 020 7626 0191 and the website qlp.ltd.uk for Andrew Joseph Black. If you were given different contact details, use these to check with the firm before going any further. The same number is also given by one other FCA firm.

Andrew Joseph Black is a genuine FCA-listed firm, and the FCA has published no warnings about fake versions of it. Scammers do copy real firms, though, so check that any contact details you were given match the ones on the register.

Protection works through QLP Limited, the principal firm responsible for Andrew Joseph Black's regulated activity. FSCS cover and the Financial Ombudsman Service apply as they would to the principal.
