In simple terms, you qualify as an ordinary everyday investor when you confirm you haven’t invested more than 10% of your net assets in the last twelve months, and will not invest more than 10% of your net assets in the next twelve months in P2P agreements.
Ordinary Everyday Investor statement
I make this statement so that I can receive promotional communications relating to P2P agreements as a restricted investor. I declare that I qualify as a restricted investor because:
- in the twelve months preceding the application date, I have not invested more than 10% of my net assets in P2P agreements; and
- I undertake that in the twelve months following the application date, I will not invest more than 10% of my net assets in P2P agreements.
Net assets for these purposes do not include:
- the property which is my primary residence or any money raised through an investment secured on that property;
- any rights of mine under a qualifying contract of insurance; or
- any benefits (in the form of pensions or otherwise) which are payable on the termination of my service or on my death or retirement and to which I am (or my dependants are), or may be entitled; or
- any withdrawals from my pension savings (except where the withdrawals are used directly for income in retirement).
I accept that the investments to which the promotions will relate may expose me to a significant risk of losing all of the money or other property invested. I am aware that it is open to me to seek advice from an authorised person who specialises in advising on P2P agreements.
