Lawnmower repair man Ian Davis was one of the victims of the £237m London Capital & Finance (LCF) mini-bond collapse scandal.

Bath-based investment adviser firm Ian Slinger (FRN: 723069) has had its Part 4A permissions to carry out regulated business removed by the FCA due to non submission of required returns.

While most fund managers have made efforts to comply with the regulator’s expectations on the design, delivery and disclosure of their ESG and sustainable funds, more improvements are needed, the FCA says.

The FCA has secured a Restraint Order under the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002 against collapsed Newcastle-based wealth manager WealthTek as a criminal and regulatory investigation continues.
