Authorised, but in an insolvency process

This firm is under the control of insolvency practitioners and may have stopped taking on new business. If you are or were a customer, deal with the appointed office holders rather than the firm.

What the FCA says

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. It has to continue to meet our standards in line with its regulatory status, including when dealing with its customers. If you are/were a customer check how this affects you with the firm or the appointed insolvency office holder(s).

Website, phone number and address

Compare these against whatever you were given. Scammers clone real firm names and reference numbers but use their own phone number and website, so a detail that does not match the register is the clearest warning sign there is.

  • Managing an unauthorised AIF
  • Operating an electronic system in relation to lending

Limits on the record

  • 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.
  • Limited Managing An AIF Permission
    The firm must not raise any additional capital from new or existing investors on behalf of its AIFs. The firm must not market its AIFs to investors
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

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.
