If You Invested In a Bond or ISA via NextCrowd or NextFin Platforms, You May Be Entitled to Compensation

If you invested through NextCrowd or NextFin, crowdfunding platforms operated by Business Agent Limited, you may be entitled to compensation following the company's recent entry into administration.

Why You May Be Able To Claim Compensation

In July 2024, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) imposed restrictions on Business Agent Limited due to significant regulatory breaches related to its NextCrowd and NextFin platforms. These breaches included unauthorised handling of client money, non-compliance with Individual Savings Account (ISA) regulations, lack of effective systems and controls, failure to disclose information, and potential breaches of financial promotion rules.

Despite these restrictions, Business Agent Limited remained authorised by the FCA until it entered administration on 8 May 2025.

How Much Money Was Involved?

While the exact amount of investor funds held by NextCrowd and NextFin at the time of administration is not publicly available, estimates suggest that tens of millions of pounds could be at risk. Both platforms facilitated investments in various sectors, including property developments, renewable energy, and fintech via bonds and ISAs.

Was Your Investment Mis-Sold?

It is important to consider whether your investment advice properly disclosed the risks involved. Were you misled about the safety or guaranteed returns of your investment? If so, you may have grounds for a successful claim.
