Statement for Self-Certified Sophisticated Investor
I declare that I am a self-certified sophisticated investor for the purposes of the Financial Services and Markets Act
(Financial Promotion) Order 2005.
I understand that this means:
- I can receive financial promotions that may not have been approved by a person authorised by the Financial
Conduct Authority - the content of such financial promotions may not conform to rules issued by the Financial Conduct Authority;
- by signing this statement I may lose significant rights;
- I may have no right to complain to either of the following—
- the Financial Conduct Authority; or
- the Financial Ombudsman Scheme;
- I may have no right to seek compensation from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme
I am a self-certified sophisticated investor because at least one of the following applies—
- I am a member of a network or syndicate of business angels and have been so for at least the last six months
prior to the date below; - I have made more than one investment in an unlisted company in the two years prior to the date below;
- I am working, or have worked in the two years prior to the date below, in a professional capacity in the
private equity sector, or in the provision of finance for small and medium enterprises; - I am currently, or have been in the two years prior to the date below, a director of a company with an annual
turnover of at least £1 million.
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.
