Limits on what they may do

This firm may handle your money in passing but must not hold it, so payments should go to the product provider, never to a personal account.

One supervisory condition set by the FCA

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.

Small Authorised UK AIFM (Sub-Threshold)
The total value of assets under management by the firm must not exceed the relevant threshold as set out in Article 3(2) of AIFMD (as determined under Chapter II, section I of the AIFMD level 2 regulation). In the event that the relevant threshold is breached, the firm must submit an application for authorisation as a Full-scope UK AIFM to the FCA

FCA disciplinary action and complaints

No FCA disciplinary action.

The Financial Ombudsman Service only publishes complaint figures for firms with 30 or more new complaints in six months, so there are none here for this firm.

About these figures

Turnover: Money taken from sales in the year, before any costs.
Profit before tax: What was left after the year’s costs, before corporation tax. A minus figure is a loss.
Net assets, or total equity: Everything the company owns minus everything it owes. A minus figure means it owes more than it owns.
Total assets and total liabilities: Everything the company owns, and everything it owes, on the last day of the year. The gap between them is its net assets.
Cash at bank: Money in the company’s accounts on the last day of the year.
Owed within a year, owed after a year: Debts and bills due in the next twelve months, and those due later.
