The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has initiated High Court proceedings against Osborne Baldwin Limited, operating under the names Hunter Jones and Hunter Jones Group. The FCA alleges that Hunter Jones has been conducting regulated activities without authorization, including the sale of loan notes. The FCA is seeking a court order to compel Hunter Jones to cease these activities and to return funds to investors. The proceedings are currently in their early stages, and the court has not yet made any rulings or set a trial date. The FCA reminds consumers that dealing with unauthorized firms carries a higher risk and may not provide access to important protections.
