High Net Worth Investor Statement

I make this statement so that I can receive promotional communications which are exempt from the restriction on promotion of non-mainstream pooled investments. The exemption relates to certified high net worth investors.

I declare, by submitting this registration, that I am a certified high net worth individual for the purposes of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005.

I understand that this means:

(a)   I can receive financial promotions that may not have been approved by a person authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority;

(b)   the content of such financial promotions may not confirm to rules issued by the Financial Conduct Authority;

(c)   by submitting this registration, I accept that I may lose significant rights;

(d)   I may have no right to complain to either of the following:

(i)   the Financial Conduct Authority; or

(ii)   the Financial Ombudsman Scheme;

(e)   I may have no right to seek compensation from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.

I am a certified high net worth individual because at least one of the following applies:

(a)   I had, during the financial year immediately preceding the date below, an annual income to the value of £100,000 or more;

(b)   I held, throughout the financial year immediately preceding the date below, net assets to the value of £250,000 or more. Net assets for these purposes do not include:

(i)   the property which is my primary residence or any loan secured on that residence;

(ii)   any rights of mine under a qualifying contract of insurance within the meaning of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Regulated Activities) Order 2001; or

(iii)   any benefits (in the form of pensions or otherwise) which are payable on the termination of my service or on my death or retirement and to which I am (or my dependants are), or may be, entitled.

I accept that I can lose my property and other assets from making investment decisions based on financial promotions.

 I am aware that it is open to me to seek advice from someone who specialises in advising on investments.
