Certified High Net Worth Individual
I declare 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 conform to rules issued by the Financial Conduct Authority; by signing this statement I may lose significant rights;
c. by clicking on the ‘VIEW STATEMENT AND AGREE’ button below, I am agreeing to the statement that I may lose significant rights;
d. I may have no right to complain to either of the following—
- the Financial Conduct Authority; or
- 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—
- the property which is my primary residence or any loan secured on that residence;
- 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
- 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 maybe, entitled.
I accept that I can lose all of my investments, property and other assets from making investment decisions based on non-regulated financial promotions.
I am aware that it is open to me to seek advice from someone who specialises in advising on investments.
