  • F N Pile and Sons Ltd (FRN 748446) introduces customers to BOC LIMITED (FRN 715528). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not F N Pile and Sons.
  • Example: if F N Pile and Sons refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from F N Pile and Sons itself.
