About Not A Business

Stated plainly, because the law here is strict

Not A Business Ltd is a private company registered in England and Wales, with its registered office at Maple Grove Business Centre, Lawrence Road, Hounslow. Its registered activity classification at Companies House is activities of open-ended investment companies (SIC 64304).

A SIC code is a statistical classification. It is not a permission, it is not a licence, and it authorises nothing. An open-ended investment company in the United Kingdom is a form of collective investment scheme and must be authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority under the Open-Ended Investment Companies Regulations 2001. Operating a collective investment scheme without authorisation or an exemption is an offence under section 19 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.

Promoting one is restricted separately. Section 21 of that Act restricts financial promotions by unauthorised persons, and section 238 restricts the promotion of collective investment schemes. Those restrictions apply to websites.

Not A Business Ltd is not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and does not appear on the Financial Services Register as an authorised firm, and no scheme of this company appears on it as an authorised or recognised scheme. The company does not operate, establish, manage, promote or wind up any collective investment scheme. It does not issue, offer, sell, redeem or deal in units, shares or any other interest in a scheme. It accepts no subscriptions and no money from investors. It gives no investment advice and arranges no investment transactions.

So this website offers nothing. There is no fund here, no unit price, no net asset value, no performance figure, no prospectus, no key information document and no invitation of any kind. If anyone cites this company or this website in connection with a fund or an investment offered to you, that person is not acting with our authority, and you should check the Financial Services Register and treat it as a warning sign.
