The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) placed ITI Capital Ltd into special administration on 25 September 2026. The special administration indicates significant financial distress for ITI Capital, which had previously agreed on 10 August 2025 to stop most regulated activities and cease accepting new client money or custody assets.
The FCA relied on its regulatory authority to oversee ITI Capital, a brokerage firm authorized and regulated by the FCA. ITI Capital provided services to customers for investing in shares and bonds.
The FCA's actions may affect clients of ITI Capital, who should be aware of the implications for their investments and potential loss of access to their funds. Clients are advised to seek guidance on their rights and options regarding their investments.
The FCA has been actively closing CFD firms that misuse their authorized status, which may have broader implications for firms operating in the CFD space. The FCA's ongoing crackdown has resulted in the closure of twenty-one CFD firms since 2025.
