Eligere Investments plc was a company that traded in environmental services such as the generation, provision and distribution of voluntary carbon offsets. The company received a warning from the UK's Financial Conduct Authority that it may be providing financial services or products in the UK without authorisation.[1] The company became insolvent in 2017 and was liquidated in April 2020.[2]

History

[edit]

As of October 2014, William Redford is the company's chief executive officer.[3][4][5]

The company was formerly traded on the GXG Market in Denmark but trading in the company's shares was suspended by GXG in early June 2015.[6]

Following a reorganisation in April 2015, the ordinary shares of Eligere Investments were 67% owned by Kijani Resources Limited, a special purpose vehicle of the Kijani Commodity Fund that is a segregated portfolio of the Brighton Segregated Portfolio Company (SPC) based in the Cayman Islands.[3] On 1 June 2015, the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority announced that Brighton SPC had been placed in Controllership following a forensic examination of the fund by accountants. The controllers now have complete authority over the fund in order to protect the interests of investors and creditors.[7]

The UK's Financial Conduct Authority has warned that Eligere may be providing financial services or products in the UK without their authorisation.[1]
