University of South Wales

University of South Wales (FRN 912637) is not directly authorised. It is an appointed representative acting under the responsibility of a directly authorised principal firm.

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. University of South Wales (FRN 912637) introduces customers to Salary Finance Limited (FRN 758053). Any regulated advice or arranging is done by the principal, not University of South Wales. Example: if University of South Wales refers you to a financial adviser, the advice should come from the principal firm, not from University of South Wales 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.

The FCA register lists the phone number 0345 576 0101 and the website southwales.ac.uk for University of South Wales. If you were given different contact details, use these to check with the firm before going any further.

University of South Wales is a genuine FCA-listed firm, and the FCA has published no warnings about fake versions of it. Scammers do copy real firms, though, so check that any contact details you were given match the ones on the register.

Protection works through Salary Finance Limited, the principal firm responsible for University of South Wales's regulated activity. FSCS cover and the Financial Ombudsman Service apply as they would to the principal.
