Introducer appointed representative

Tony Stephenson 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.
  • Tony Stephenson (FRN 989948) introduces customers to GOLDEN LEAVES LIMITED (FRN 960923). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not Tony Stephenson.
  • Example: if Tony Stephenson refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from Tony Stephenson 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.
