# Promethean Finance
Promethean Finance Limited operates as a financial services firm based in Manchester, regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority under FRN 662425. The company appears to have faced significant regulatory scrutiny, with the FCA imposing comprehensive requirements in April 2023 due to the use of non-genuine trading names and compliance issues with financial promotion standards.
The firm's core business involves referring customers to financial services, operating through multiple trading names registered with the FCA. However, the regulatory action reveals problematic practices: the company had registered trading names that did not comply with FCA standards and failed to ensure its financial promotions met required regulatory benchmarks. This resulted in enforcement action requiring the removal of all non-genuine trading names and a complete overhaul of marketing communications.
Following the FCA intervention, Promethean Finance was forced to conduct comprehensive reviews of its systems, controls, policies and procedures across all financial promotion activities. The firm had to notify all customers who had been referred through the problematic trading names since March 2022 and publish prominent notices on its website detailing the regulatory requirements imposed.
The business model centres on customer referrals within the financial services sector, though the enforcement action suggests this was previously executed with inadequate oversight and compliance controls. The FCA's indefinite requirements remain in place until the Authority determines the firm has sufficiently remedied identified deficiencies.
