Standards & Integrity 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The above are the principles that we are guided by.

In return we expect our clients and shareholders  to be honest and open in their communications.  If there are aspects that  need clarifying we expect you to raise them with us. Once you have  done your due diligence we expect you to make a firm decision whether or not you wish to proceed.  Below are some questions you may have about us. 

 

Who are you ? 

The Fountainhead Investments  is based in London , England .

It is formed by Peter A Barnett who is the  CEO and Founder. He has extensive experience in  financial services, including  Private equity, stockbroking, inter-dealer broking and derivatives trading. 

What is the company background ? 

The company is registered in England and Wales.  The firm provides alternative investment opportunities  in Art and UK Property off plan Investments. Finally, provides trader training and facilitation for new traders & traders with  0 -18 months experience looking to improve their understanding of the sector and  trading results. 

Are you FCA Regulated ?

 

Short answer: As a proprietary Trading Company NO. 

The placement of private company shares is an unregulated activity and is only suitable for qualifying investors. 

 

No regulations are required for Trader Training nor in investment of property and Art. 

 

What is the qualifying criteria to be able to purchase the redeemable shares?

 Qualifying investors who have  an understanding of the risks and reward are considered to participate. 

We assess a potential investor on the following criteria: 

  • Affordability

  • Knowledge and Experience of Investing

  • Attitude to Risk

  

What are the benefits of owning the redeemable shares? 

  • There is no limit to share price appreciation. (Capital Growth)

  • Income from dividends , subject to performance.

  • Defined risk, limited  to the  capital invested.

  • If the company redeems it's shares then you will receive 100% of the amount you invested back plus an additional  7.5%. 

 

 

Are the returns guaranteed ? 

Short Answer:  NO. 

If this is a question you need asking you are not a suitable investor for any of our services.  Investing or trading  is a risky business. Past performance is no  guarantee of future performance. Risk can be mitigated through a number of ways for example:

  • The Amount of Capital Allocated for the Investment 

  • Receiving Dividends ( Each Dividend payment reduces your Risk)

  • Diversifying of  Capital invested - different Asset classes  - Trading strategies - Trader training and Introducing Brokerage activities

  • Duration of the Investment 

As a proprietary trading firm  being active trading in small size, relative to larger institutional market participants,  enables traders to be more responsive to market conditions and therefore scale into and out of positions without these positions going against them. 

As  a consequence achieving average  returns of 2- 5 % per quarter  is a realistic ROI on capital traded. This represents only part of our activities as we seek to diversify risk through being active in our services.

We believe that if a shareholder holds their stock for at least  three - five  years, it will give enough time for returns to generate, subject to performance,  we will  make dividend payments which obviously pleases shareholders and reduces their risk. The shares being redeemable at par come with a 7.5% premium when exercised.

What's the catch? 

We are a private limited company so you will need to be a qualified investor to invest. We are not looking for orphans, widows or people who require the word "Guaranteed returns"  because they are seeking a risk free investment or promises thereof.  Only  serious investors that understand and accept the principles of risk and reward are accepted.

 

This is because the capital that is used to purchase our shares is at risk.  As a shareholder the value of the shares may not be the same as the amount you paid for them on exit. They could be less or a lot more.

What's the minimum investment Size ? 

 

  • 20 % of  Off-Plan Property 

  • 25,000 for the redeemable shares 

  • £10,000  Average Artwork

  • £2,495   Trader Training Course

Regarding the Redeemable shares what happens if I wish to sell early ? 

If you wish to sell  your shares early,  then you will be given a valuation of your holding based on the current share value. You may not get as much as you put in if you withdraw within three years of investing. 

 

By  holding your shares for at least three years  it allows  your shares a  period of gestation to develop and grow. 

If you wish to withdraw all your funds from an international Investment Bond you will usually  pay a redemption fee if taken within 5  years of holding the Bond.

What happens to  my  funds? 

 

If you wish to apply for redeemable shares with FHI then the funds are used for as per the business model in the information memorandum. That is a combination of working and trading capital. 

 

As a shareholder you receive a share certificate and are placed on the company share register.
