William Jackson and the Security Trustee Gap: Weak Links in Loan Note Protection

In this episode, we examine the fragile security arrangements behind William (Billy) Jackson’s loan note companies, and why loan note holders should be concerned.

We cover:

• The collapse of Castle Trust & Management Services and its track record in failed schemes
• The rise of Alpha Trustee Services and its key figures, including connections to past loan note collapses
• The gap between Alpha’s marketing promises and what appears in Companies House filings
• Case studies like WH2022 Ltd and Ashbrookes Group that highlight narrow asset coverage, vague enforcement provisions, and little visible action
• Why a trustee’s willingness to act matters as much as the assets themselves

This isn’t just about legal paperwork, it’s about whether the final safeguard in unregulated investments is strong enough to protect you when it counts.
