Financial Adviser Confirmation

THIS CONTENT IS FOR PROFESSIONAL ADVISERS ONLY

Investments in unquoted companies carry high risks and investors could lose all funds invested. No established market exists for the trading of shares in private companies, making it difficult to sell shares. The value of tax reliefs depend on personal circumstances and may be subject to change in the future. Investors are encouraged to take independent legal, tax and financial advice before considering an investment.

By clicking below, you confirm that you are an FCA authorised firm or individual and agree to be directed to our website, which is for FCA authorised firms and individuals only. Persons who do not meet this classification should leave this page.

If you are not a professional financial adviser, please contact the Deepbridge Investor Relations Team on 01244 746000 or by email at enquiries@deepbridgecapital.com.

Important Information

Due to the potential for losses, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) considers this investment to be high risk.

What are the key risks?

1. You could lose all the money you invest

  • If the business you invest in fails, you are likely to lose 100% of the money you invested. Most start-up businesses fail.

2. You are unlikely to be protected if something goes wrong

  • Protection from the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), in relation to claims against failed regulated firms, does not cover poor investment performance. Try the FSCS investment protection checker here. [https://www.fscs.org.uk/check/investment-protection-checker/]
  • Protection from the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) does not cover poor investment performance. If you have a complaint against an FCA-regulated firm, FOS may be able to consider it. Learn more about FOS protection here. [https://www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk/consumers]

3. You won’t get your money back quickly

  • Even if the business you invest in is successful, it may take several years to get your money back. You are unlikely to be able to sell your investment early.
  • The most likely way to get your money back is if the business is bought by another business or lists its shares on an exchange such as the London Stock Exchange. These events are not common.
  • If you are investing in a start-up business, you should not expect to get your money back through dividends. Start-up businesses rarely pay these.

4. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket

  • Putting all your money into a single business or type of investment for example, is risky. Spreading your money across different investments makes you less dependent on any one to do well.
  • A good rule of thumb is not to invest more than 10% of your money in high-risk investments.  [https://www.fca.org.uk/investsmart/5-questions-ask-you-invest]

5. The value of your investment can be reduced

  • The percentage of the business that you own will decrease if the business issues more shares. This could mean that the value of your investment reduces, depending on how much the business grows. Most start-up businesses issue multiple rounds of shares.
  • These new shares could have additional rights that your shares don’t have, such as the right to receive a fixed dividend, which could further reduce your chances of getting a return on your investment.
