Prudential Distribution Limited is a Scottish-registered company classified under financial intermediation activities not elsewhere classified. It was originally incorporated as Scottish Amicable Financial Services Limited in 2000, later renamed Prudential UK Intermediaries Limited, before adopting its current name. Companies House records show its company secretary as M&G Management Services Limited and its directors correspond via an M&G Group London address, indicating it operates as part of the M&G/Prudential financial services group rather than as an independent trading business. No further detail on specific products or client-facing activities is available from the evidence, beyond its classification as a financial intermediary within this wider group structure.
