Activities and protection

What the record covers, and how you are protected

  • The record is closed
    Cover you already have generally survives the cancellation: FSCS exists for firms that have failed, and the Financial Ombudsman Service can look at a complaint about a firm that has stopped trading, as long as the business was done while it was authorised. New business with this firm has no cover at all, because it is no longer permitted to carry it out.

Track record

FCA actions and complaints

No FCA disciplinary action, and no complaints recorded with the Ombudsman.
