FCA warns of high-risk holiday park investment schemes

The FCA warns of unregulated holiday park investment schemes being promoted unlawfully, posing high risks and potential scams to UK consumers. These schemes, often involving holiday lodges and homes, are promoted by unauthorized companies. Investors in unregulated schemes lack protection from the Financial Ombudsman Service or the Financial Services Compensation Scheme if issues arise. Consumers are advised to verify a firm's authorization using the FCA Firm Checker before investing to ensure they are permitted to offer the services sought.
