ATTENTION - Firm in an insolvency process
This firm is in an insolvency process. It is under the control of the appointed insolvency office holder(s) and may have stopped taking on new business.

If you are/were a customer check how this affects you with the firm or the appointed insolvency office holder(s).

These are conditions the FCA places on the firm itself, covering things like capital it must hold and what it must report. They do not change what the firm may do for you.
- CPMI Requirement
The firm is only permitted to carry on the activities specified in FUND 1.4.3R (1) to (6) or any successor provision
FCA disciplinary action and complaints
