The FCA links the decision to stop trading to upheld Financial Ombudsman Service complaints about unsuitable investment advice. Its notice describes FSCS protection for eligible client-money and custody shortfalls up to £85,000; it does not promise that every customer or loss qualifies.[1]
An investment’s ordinary market decline, an advice claim and a custody shortfall are different questions. Clients need their own account and advice records to establish what happened and which process applies. A generic compensation ceiling cannot determine an individual recovery.[1]
