# asic-credit — check an Australian credit representative or licensee

> Check any of 47,127 credit representatives and 4,347 credit licensees on ASIC's registers — who appoints them, and where a complaint goes.

## Check a credit representative or licensee

Type the broker's name, or their credit representative number. 47,127 representatives and 4,347 licensees, from ASIC's registers.

### The name on the door is almost never the licence

A mortgage broker is either **appointed as a credit representative**
of someone who holds an Australian credit licence, or holds one themselves. In
practice the first is the rule: 47,127 representatives sit under 4,347
licensees, and **four licensees alone account for 17,567 of
them**.

That matters because the aggregator behind your local broker is not on their
business card, and 1,491 licensees trade under registered business names
that differ from their legal name. This site follows both links.

### Where a complaint would actually go

Every credit representative must belong to an external dispute resolution
scheme. Since **1 November 2018** there has been only one: AFCA,
which absorbed the Financial Ombudsman Service, the Credit and Investments
Ombudsman and the Superannuation Complaints Tribunal.

Yet **2,595 entries on this register still name FOS, COSL or
CIO**, and 3,108 name none at all. That is almost certainly a
register line that was never refreshed rather than anything wrong with the
broker — but a consumer who reads “FOS” and writes to FOS will find
nobody there. [The breakdown, scheme by scheme](/complaints.md).

### ⚠️ What this register cannot tell you

ASIC publishes **current appointments only**: there is no
“ceased” entry to find. So absence from this register is not proof
of anything on its own — a broker who left last month simply vanishes from it,
and one who holds a licence in their own right was never a representative at
all.

### Looking for a loan?

Being on this register is the legal minimum to arrange credit — it is not a recommendation, and this site makes none. Tell us roughly what you need and where you are, and we will put the enquiry in front of people who are on the register. We are not a broker, we hold no product, and we take no commission.

We read every message ourselves. Your email is used to reply and to pass the enquiry on, and nothing else — see the [privacy page](/privacy.md).
