The FCA has flagged 6 new unauthorised-firm entries in the week to 15 June 2026, which gives finance teams, advisers and SME owners a live screening job before sending funds or taking regulated investment approaches. But the supplied record does not contain the six firm names: each entry is shown only as “16/04/2026”, so we cannot safely republish names that are not actually present in the source data.
What the source says
The only verifiable point in the record provided here is the count: 6 additions for the period ending 2026-06-15, with all entries pointing to the FCA Warning List of unauthorised firms. The FCA cautions UK consumers and businesses that firms on that list may be operating without authorisation, per the FCA Warning List.
Why names are withheld here
Because the named-firm fields are populated with a date rather than firm names, publishing those entries as if they were identified businesses would be misleading. We are therefore keeping this note to what can be supported directly by the supplied material and the FCA source page.
What this means for UK SMEs
If you are onboarding a broker, lender, investment introducer or payments counterparty, verify regulator status before trading. Check the FCA Warning List and the relevant permissions before any payment, mandate or referral. The broader legal framework sits under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, but this post is reporting the FCA’s published warning page, not making any allegation beyond that.
Verify regulator status before trading with any UK financial firm, recoup-iq.tech/check-a-debtor cross-references against the FCA Warning List.
We will update once the six names are available in a clean, verifiable source record.
