I think our money men are up there with the canniest but are also very prudent and that we'll be fine. He says. Famous last words!

Ken Davy is a very respected figure in the Financial Services Industry and I for one cannot see him wanting to put his name to anything that is not Kosher.

But that's the point, isn't it? This loophole was legit and is now being closed. As such, I wouldn't be at all surprised if we had used it.

It would be very foolish not to.

Also, ofshore investments & deposits are not a way of avoiding paying tax, just a more effecient way to do it, usually for higher rate payers, yes its a loophole, and yes its being closed.

No biggie.

In the long run it might mean fewer aussie imports on big paypackets as it wont be as big a payday for them as it is.

Every advisor on pension in the country got his with fines for pension review, DBS got charged the most because at the time they were the largest IFA network in the country

Feel free to actually do some research in future.

Just giving some balance to the comment that he wouldn't put his name to anything not Kosher. Feel free to actually read in future and not be so condescending.

I think I treated your post with all the respect it deserved

Whatever you think, Ken Davey is a respected man in the financial services world, having built up two very successeful companies and founded an entire industry himself.

If you had done some deeper digging, certainly with regard to the ISA issues you would also learn that the fines were much, much reduced because of the level of co-operation from DBS with the FSA.

And finally, making a mistake that is later censured is not a sign of crookedness, just of error making, and given the FSA are happy to apply rules retrospectivly its also to be taken with a pinch of salt.

Comments such as these can only come from one type of person - A Huddersfield Town Fan. If only they realised what Ken Davy has given them - life and breathing space until someone else could take over. This is all the thanks he gets. Yes we know he only did it to keep the Stadium for The Giants, Yes we know je has a hidden agenda, Yes we know he must have made a fortune out of Town. Yawn. I'm going back to sleep. Someone should put Digger to sleep as well.
