Verification standard

What "verified" actually means.

Every listing is reviewed against the same documented checks before it goes live. Here is exactly what we check, how listings are labelled, and what verification does not mean.

What we check

Six areas, every listing.

Who the issuer is

Legal name, registration, ownership and the people responsible.

Licence or exemption

The licence for the activity, checked on the regulator's public register, or the exemption relied on.

Offering documents

Information memorandum, terms and subscription documents are complete and consistent.

Fees, in full

Every fee is listed: entry, management, performance, exit and any others.

Risks and use of funds

Key risks are stated clearly, and the listing says where the money goes.

Return claims

Any target return shows how it is defined and calculated, and is labelled as not guaranteed.

Labels

Clear status, every time.

Verified

Passed the documented checks. The review date is shown on the listing.

Coming soon

Announced only. Terms and return targets are not published until verified.

Reviewed, then re-reviewed.

Every listing shows the date of its last review
The next review deadline is recorded for each listing; material changes trigger an earlier review
Issuers must tell us about material changes
If a check fails, the listing is withdrawn and the reason is recorded

⚠Verification has limits. We review what the issuer provides and what public registers show. We can't audit a business or guarantee its future. Always do your own due diligence.
