Public Statement

Access Finance PLC (“Access”)

www.afplc-online.co.uk (the “Website”)

Banking Business (Jersey) Law 1991, as amended (the “Banking Business Law”)

The Jersey Financial Services Commission (the “Commission”) issues this public statement

under Article 48(2) of the Banking Business Law.

This statement is made in order to warn investors and others against dealing with

unauthorised financial services providers. Access has not received authorisation to conduct

deposit-taking business within the meaning of the Banking Business Law.

It appears to the Commission that Access, as described on the Website, is falsely purporting

to trade from an address of New Street, St. Helier, Jersey, United Kingdom, JE4 and is

carrying on or holding out that it is carrying on deposit-taking business in Jersey when it is

not authorised to do so pursuant to the provisions of the Banking Business Law.

The Commission wishes the following to be known:

1. Access has never been registered, nor applied for registration, under the Banking

Business Law. Therefore any deposit-taking business, as defined in Article 3 of the

Banking Business Law and carried out by Access since 1 October 1991, is in breach of

Article 8 of the Banking Business Law.

2. From documentation held by the Commission, it appears Access and the Website

display warning signs of being set up for a fraudulent purpose.

All regulated businesses in Jersey are listed on our website.

Any person who has had dealings with Access is requested to contact the Commission.
