The Commission wishes it to be known that:
1. FRF LLP has never been registered, or applied for registration, under the Financial Services Law. Therefore, any financial service business, as defined in Article 2 of the Financial Services Law and carried out since 1 July 1999, is a breach of Article 7 of the Financial Services Law;
2. From documentation held by the Commission. it would appear that FRF LLP displays warning signs of being set up for a fraudulent purpose.

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