Connected Financial Services Ltd Background
Connected Financial Services Ltd: A Regulatory Overview
Connected Financial Services Ltd was a UK-based financial services firm registered with the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), holding Firm Reference Number 670425. Incorporated on September 23, 2020, the company was initially established to provide financial services within a regulated framework.
However, the firm’s current status of ‘Regulatory approval no longer required’ signals significant regulatory complications. This status typically indicates that the FCA has identified serious concerns about the company’s operational practices, potentially involving compliance failures, misconduct, or systemic issues that compromised client protections.
The company’s sudden transition from an active, regulated entity to losing its authorization represents a critical moment for all clients and investors who had financial relationships with Connected Financial Services Ltd. Understanding the nuanced implications of this regulatory action is crucial for anyone seeking to protect their financial interests.
Leadership
Leadership and Regulatory Context
Connected Financial Services Ltd was led by several key individuals who held significant roles within the organization:
1. Mohammad M Khurshid Akhtar: Primary Contact and likely senior leadership role
2. Mark Anthony Wallbank: Certified/Assessed by the Firm
3. Paul Briggs: Leadership Team Member
4. Stephen Charles Johns: Leadership Team Member
5. Esther Tollilope Oyewole: Leadership Team Member
The presence of multiple leadership figures suggests a structured organizational approach. However, the subsequent regulatory challenges indicate potential systemic issues that may have existed within the firm’s operational framework.
The individual roles and responsibilities of these leaders during the firm’s regulatory investigation remain a critical area of examination for affected clients seeking to understand the full context of the firm’s regulatory challenges.
