Restricted Investors

Restricted (Everyday Investor): A certified restricted investor is an individual who has signed, within the period of twelve months ending with the day on which the communication is made, a statement in the following terms:

Restricted Investor Statement

I make this statement so that I can receive promotional communications relating to non-readily realisable securities as a restricted investor. I declare that I qualify as a restricted investor because:

  • in the twelve months preceding the date below, I have not invested more than 10% of my net assets in non-readily realisable securities; and
  • I undertake that in the twelve months following today's date I will not invest more than 10% of my net assets in non-readily realisable securities.

Net assets for these purposes do not include:

  • the property which is my primary residence or any money raised through a loan secured on that property;
  • any rights of mine under a qualifying contract of insurance;
  • 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 may be entitled;
  • any withdrawals from my pension savings (except where the withdrawals are used directly for income in retirement).

I accept that the investments to which the promotions will relate may expose me to a significant risk of losing all of the money or other property invested. I am aware that it is open to me to seek advice from an authorised person who specialises in advising on non-readily realisable securities.
