Licence application relevance
Applicants should use public registers before submission to understand terminology, comparable permission records, and how official sources present firms. This is benchmarking, not copying another firm's licence.
Investors and counterparties should use the official register directly. LicenseCompare links out instead of replacing regulator records with stale scraped profiles.
