Great Point Investments Limited
Great Point Investments Limited was a Small Authorised UK Alternative Investment Fund Manager, regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FRN 606798), that managed funds focused on the global creative industries sector. The firm’s primary offering was the Selective Television Production EIS 6 fund, an Enterprise Investment Scheme product designed to attract investors into UK television production.
The firm was a subsidiary of Great Point Media Limited, a media group with operations in television production. When Great Point Media Limited became insolvent in mid-2024, the parent company’s collapse left the investment fund in an extremely vulnerable position. With the parent gone and very limited funds remaining at the investment firm itself, the director took steps to place Great Point Investments Limited into creditors’ voluntary liquidation.
The firm entered creditors’ voluntary liquidation on 30 July 2024, with Andrew Charters, Christine Laverty and Nicholas Nicholson of Grant Thornton UK LLP appointed as joint liquidators. The Financial Services Compensation Scheme began investigating the firm in August 2024 and, by May 2026, had received 110 live investment claims. With one claim upheld, the FSCS declared the firm in default on 8 May 2026.
Issues / Why You May Have a Claim
Many investors were not made fully aware of the risks associated with EIS funds before committing their money. These products are complex, illiquid instruments, and clients should have received clear, personalised advice on whether such an investment was appropriate for their individual circumstances. Where that advice was inadequate, misleading or absent altogether, investors may have a valid claim for compensation.
