  • Fined £494,900 on 8 December 2011
    On 14 September 2011 the FSA imposed a public censure and fine of £494,900 on Towry Investment Management Limited (Towry) for failing to comply with Principle 10 and Principle 11 of the FSA Principles for Businesses. In this case Towry admitted that it breached Principle 11 because it failed to undertake adequate enquiries before replying to the FSA's Dear CEO Letter dated 19 January 2010. In its response, Towry said that it was compliant with the FSA's client money and custody requirements. A subsequent FSA visit revealed CASS breaches that Towry should have reported when it responded to the Dear CEO letter. The Final Notice, which sets out the reasons for the action, can be found at the following link.

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.
