Responsible principal firm
CARMONEY LIMITED Reference number: 674094 View firm →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.
- AQUARIUS LIGHT COMMERCIALS LIMITED (FRN 1042534) introduces customers to CARMONEY LIMITED (FRN 674094). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not AQUARIUS LIGHT COMMERCIALS.
- Example: if AQUARIUS LIGHT COMMERCIALS refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from AQUARIUS LIGHT COMMERCIALS 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.
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.

- Everything the company owns minus everything it owes. A minus figure means it owes more than it owns.
- Total assets and total liabilities
- Everything the company owns, and everything it owes, on the last day of the year. The gap between them is its net assets.
- Cash at bank
- Money in the company’s accounts on the last day of the year.
- Owed within a year, owed after a year
- Debts and bills due in the next twelve months, and those due later.
