Proof of concept now "ProVen" beyond all doubt..........

Quo fata ferunt is something I learnt 40 years ago and is a great maxim for life.

So I have been burrowing around creating 5 years historical financial and regulatory data on all the members of the truly ghastly and useless Venture Capital Trust Association and the constituent parts of their members investment portfolios, and lo and behold ....



Why on earth would anyone trust the FCA or any members of any entity it regulates whose filings are so delinquent that a Premium Listed company on the London Stock Exchange was about to be struck-off and all assets handed to The Crown? You should see the investment manager's own appalling compliance record.

The numbers seem to indicate that the bill for HMRC is upto 5 times the net cash raised by VCT managers.... and they can't even do the job for which they are being paid!

Another damning indictment of the "money for old rope" attitude of the City of London accountants, lawyers and other "pond life"..."don't worry old boy, no-one will notice"

UPDATE 15 JULY [Expletive deleted] ...........

  UPDATE 15 JULY. Do read yet another corrective filing today. Only 2 more to do.  A nyone else looking at the ARR per employee against the industry stats? Not promising for a double unicorn valuation.  .............................................  Is there anyone at Quantexa who is even half competent at adding up? Certainly not Ed Lascelles the Albion appointed Director. Yet another try at getting things right filed this morning - and this where the Secretary of State has a "controlling" stake and runs Companies House and all Company Investigations.  What hope is there for the UK unless Real rather than Artificial replaces the "Intelligence" at Quantexa and the Department of Business and Trade? Anyone care to write to the SEC and tell them that Richard Seewald, Director of Quantexa, is still lying through his teeth even though he has £gazillions of UK taxpayer money given to him by the Secretary of State?  Well at least they no longer say that the Unp...

The Foresight Saga begins.... and will be regularly updated here [last update 12 March 2025]

For those who have been following the grubby Albion crimes and scams perpetrated by Patrick Reeve, Will Fraser-Allen and the gang in Benjamin Street, it will probably come as no surprise to find that "Foresight" is at the "Forefront" as one of most of the other VCT investment managers who don't know one end of the Companies Act compliance requirements from the other, and therefore I have become a shareholder in Foresight Group Holdings Ltd, a Guernsey company with its shares traded on LSE and with its 2 UK llps authorised by the FCA. It will come as no surprise to find that Albion's internal auditors, AZETS, are the "Independent Valuers" whose mandatory s593 report is missing from the documents when Foresight eventually late filed the Companies House return.  -------------------------------------------------------- [Update 3 March] Companies House confirms documents never supplied and asks for my help!   [Update 5 March] See graphic and comments be...

And now The Association of Investment Companies is guilty of breaches of The Companies Act ...... no surprise there then.

"DYOR"..............With 12% of their members being VCTs ("Voracious Crooks & Thieves") it should come as no surprise that any entity that appoints Will Fraser-Allen or Patrick Reeve as a Director is incapable of complying with Company Law Compliance - if they can't even get their own VCT investments to comply, why would they get their Association to do so? Lot's more to come....
