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.
  • Holloway Cook Limited (FRN 462028) introduces customers to St. James's Place Wealth Management Plc (FRN 195351). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not Holloway Cook.

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.
