📝 Show Notes:

In this episode, we dive into the unfolding situation surrounding The 79th Group, a property investment company now at the centre of a City of London Police investigation into suspected widespread fraud.

Following the arrests and bailing of four individuals, the company has suspended all interest and redemption payments on its loan notes—leaving many investors in limbo.

We explore:

  • The timeline of the investigation
  • What the suspension means for loan note holders
  • Allegations of legal intimidation against whistleblowers
  • The red flags Insolvency & Law identified as early as 2022
  • How investors can act now to protect themselves and potentially recover funds
