Introducer appointed representative

John Sydenham Whitelock can only introduce you to their principal, and cannot give financial advice, recommend products, or arrange deals alone.

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.
  • John Sydenham Whitelock (FRN 547457) introduces customers to Chubb Thomas Insurance Brokers Ltd (FRN 304399). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not John Sydenham Whitelock.

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.
