UK Best Investments is a trading style of UK Property Investment Club Limited which is registered in England & Wales under Companies House number 11219617 and has an ICO number of ZB064809. UK Best Investments is itself not FCA regulated and the investments provided like most similar investments do not guarantee repayment of the initial investment or interest generated. In the event of loss, investors will not be covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). The information on this page and the content of the investor information pack are not to be interpreted as formal advice or recommendations, as they do not carry ‘authorised person’ approval in accordance with Section 21 of the Financial Services Act 2000. All information provided is offered on an ‘as is’ basis and the client acknowledges and accepts the risks associated with these types of investments.

What do the FCA do?

Financial markets need to be honest, fair and effective so that consumers get a fair deal.

We aim to make markets work well – for individuals, for business, large and small, and for the economy as a whole. We do this by regulating the conduct of nearly 60,000 businesses.

The UK’s independent authority set up to uphold information rights in the public interest, promoting openness by public bodies and data privacy for individuals.
