Information
Frequently Asked Questions
Independent Due Diligence
Has independent due diligence been conducted?
Yes. An independent accounting and legal review has been carried out for our loan notes. Also each borrowing entity has a third-party valuation and financial due diligence is also commissioned. Full documentation is available upon request.
Regulatory Status and Oversight
Is this investment regulated by the FCA or another recognised authority?
This is a private placement structured under English law and offered under exemptions for high-net-worth or self-certified sophisticated investors. While the issuing entity is not FCA-authorised, the structure adheres to UK legal standards and is supported by robust legal and trustee arrangements.
Issuing Entity and Jurisdiction
Who is the issuing entity, and where is it based? Can this be verified?
The issuing entities are UK-registered companies:
Starfortis – Value Add Ltd (Bridging)
Starfortis – Opportunistic Ltd (Mezzanine)
All registration details, including Companies House filings and legal documentation, are made available for independent verification.
Structure Guarantee
Who guarantees the interest payments?
There is no external guarantee. Repayments are contractually agreed and, secured against real estate assets. Each borrowing entity is assessed for their ability to meet obligations and legal security is taken accordingly.
However, our legal undertaking with our development partner provides strong investor protection.
Listed Security vs Private Placement
Is this a listed security with an ISIN, or a private placement?
This is a private, unlisted offering. While the loan note may have features similar to a bond, such as a fixed term, interest payments, and asset security, it does not have an ISIN and is not traded on public markets.
Investor Protection Schemes
Does this investment fall under the FSCS or any investor protection scheme?
No. Like most alternative investments, it is not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).
We have an irrevocable legal undertaking with our development partner to manage this risk using an investor first approach.
How Are Returns Generated
How are returns generated? What’s the underlying cashflow?
Returns come from interest paid by the underlying borrower typically a property development or asset-backed SPV under fixed-term loan agreements. Investors receive a share of this income, supported by security arrangements. Full project summaries and borrower details are provided.
Liquidity and Early Exit Options
Can I exit early? Is there a secondary market?
This is an illiquid investment. There is no formal secondary market. However, we may be able to facilitate a resale via our network of investors. This is not guaranteed and may involve a discount.
Segregated vs Co-mingled
Are funds held in trust or segregated accounts?
Yes. Funds are held in segregated, ring-fenced accounts and are not co-mingled with the promoter’s or SPV’s operational funds. These accounts are managed by an independent third party until drawdown.
Ring Fenced Client Funds
Where is the money held, and who has authority over it?
Investor funds are held in a designated client account, overseen by a regulated trustee or payment agent. Funds are only released once all legal documentation and security conditions are met.
Security Trustee
Is there a regulated third-party custodian or trustee involved?
Yes. We appoint a security trustee and third party professionals to oversee investor protections, monitor compliance, and manage the release of funds.
Commissions to Agent's
How are your introducing agents compensated for recommending this investment?
They are compensated by the issuer for their role in introducing and managing investor relationships. Fees are fully disclosed and do not reduce your invested capital or expected returns.
Insolvency Scenario
What happens if the issuer or promoter fails?Are funds protected?
Funds held pre-drawdown remain in segregated accounts under trustee control. If the issuer or SPV fails, legal security remains in place and the trustee is responsible for recovering capital on behalf of investors.
Who Pays The Introducing Agent Fee
Is the agent's fee deducted from my investment or interest payments?
No. Their fee is covered by the borrower as part of the overall project cost. It does not impact your principal or the interest you receive.
