Abstract:City Credit Capital faces financial concerns with £10M missing. The link to a Malaysian firm raises questions. Stay updated on investor fund recoveries.
In a recent development from July, City Credit Capital (UK) Ltd., a CFDs broker approved by the FCA, is undergoing an administrative process. Disturbingly, approximately £10 million, belonging to their Professional Clients, seems to have vanished offshore, raising questions about its recovery.
Who's Involved? City Credit Capital, managing the website cccapital.co.uk, and its associated brand CIX Markets (cixmarkets.com) were overseen by an American businessman, Alfred Tang.
Performance Decline: In the past few years, City Credit Capitals financial health has deteriorated. In 2021, they reported a significant loss of £3.8 million, despite having earned a £725K profit just four years earlier in 2017.
Funds Mismatch: Originally, it was believed that the company, along with CIX Markets, had £3.5 million of their clients' funds. Surprisingly, a report from Begbies Traynor, the administrative firm, indicates this figure might be substantially higher and is primarily missing.
What happened? Most concerns stem from a company in Malaysia called CCC (Labuan) Limited, associated with Mr. Tang. This company is in financial trouble and owes City Credit Capital around £7.7 million. It's now apparent that a lot of the missing money had been funneled into this Malaysian entity.
The Pressure Mounts: With CCC (Labuan) Limited's financial collapse, City Credit Capital couldn't repay its professional investors. This has led to significant demands from these investors for their money.
Begbies Traynor discovered nearly £1 million in the company's bank account. However, while the funds of everyday clients seem largely intact, a whopping £10 million from professional clients remains untraced. It's believed that this money was primarily channeled to the Malaysian company, CCC (Labuan) Limited.
While there's hope that regular clients will receive their dues, the recovery of the Professional Client funds remains uncertain. Notably, Ayers Alliance and Longchamp Absolute Return Unit Trust Fund are among the most significant professional investors awaiting their returns.
The administrators plan to update on their recovery efforts in the upcoming six months. It's crucial for investors to stay informed and updated on such matters to protect their interests.
