What happens when investment clubs aren't all they promise to be... A client approached us back in 2022, having lost over £100,000 in savings. He was a member of an investment club that published investment suggestions - a recent suggestion being that subscribers should consider “investing” in Peer to Peer lending via a SIPP pension. Our client opened a SIPP with Greyfriars Asset Management and made substantial “investments” in companies known as Savings Stream (now Lendy) and Thincats. Some of the “investments” that our client made failed, resulting in him suffering a loss of over £100,000. We assisted our client in making an application for compensation against Greyfriars Asset Management LLP to the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, on account of the failure by the SIPP company to carry out due diligence on the investment club and/or the underlying “investments”. We were very pleased to advise our client that we had recovered £85,000 on his behalf. But not all investors are this lucky. If you think you've lost money as a result of bad advice, get in touch with Pension Justice today. Don't delay! #Pension #Compensation #SuccessStory

My Capitol Asset Strategies business partner, Chris Hayes, is quoted extensively in Bill M.' new #PrivateFundsCFO article on a recent #LimitedPartner amicus response to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's controversial #privatefundadviserrules. The article is worth a read. The notion advanced in the amicus brief and discussed in the article - that the court should allow the SEC's new overreaching rules to stand because without them the SEC would not be able to referee or oversee #privatemarkets is just wrong. The SEC has robustly regulated private markets for a long time and that level of regulation has only increased over the past 15 years without the new private fund adviser rules. Sophisticated parties should still be allowed to negotiate for the terms that they want when they invest. If they don't get the terms they want from one investment opportunity, they are under no obligation to invest in it and have a multitude of other viable investment options to pursue. Likewise, the SEC has authority to regulate markets and market participants responsibly, but that power is not, should not, and cannot be unlimited. It is now up to the United States Court Of Appeals For The Fifth Circuit to decide what happens next. Stay tuned. #privateequity #privatecredit #venturecapital #hedgefunds #regulation

Thanks to Bill M. at #PrivateFundsCFO for reaching out and quoting me in this article on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's #privatefundadviser rules and the recent submission of the Institutional Limited Partners Association (ILPA)'s #amicus #brief. "LPs don’t want the private market to become just another version of mutual funds, where pension fiduciaries select from a narrow menu of off-the-shelf products, but they do want minimum standards of disclosure, openness and conflict-mitigation,Hayes says." #privatefunds #LPs #GPs #privateequity #privatecredit #SEC https://lnkd.in/eibBn-Rh

Henry Tapper rightly points out the failures in the current buyout market. The take it or leave it approach suggests that Trustees are not organised to do the legwork of ensuring they have good records of members that can be touted round the market and readily modelled so it should only take a low level of work for the insurers to model the value of the fund. Big data is readily handled. It is not as if each person should have to be scribed in by hand. Similarly the DB move to government securities as prime low risk funds can be reversed into higher reward investments at the cost to the taxpayer as the price of raising new finance grows because the market is flooded with unwanted DB owned gilts. Time for some real sorting out. #BPpensioners

Pieter Koekemoer, Asanda Notshe, Kim Zietsman, Shane Tremeer and Sophie van Garderen shared their observations around #offshore allocation, particularly given the #Reg28 amendment. #assetallocation #investmenttrends #financialadvisers #wealthmanagement #HNWIs #retirementinvesting
