Written jointly with Ben Turney & Nigel Somerville...Quite simply, the firm of Beaumont Cornish is not fit for purpose as a Nomad. It epitomises all that is wrong with the AIM market. The epic fiasco surrounding the New World Oil and Gas Placing may be the last straw but Beaumont Cornish has form going back years. Even with regard to just this one company there have been serial disasters, but there are more cases where Beaumont Cornish has failed in its duties as Nomad.
If the Laughing Stock Exchange and the chocolate teapots of the FCA are going to try to maintain any pretence whatsoever that the AIM market is policed then Beaumont Cornish has to be made to pay the price. In this article we outline some of the scandals presided over by this squalid firm. Investors have lost money through incompetence, lies, fraud and cronyism where Beaumont Cornish is supposed to have acted as the long arm of the regulator, but has failed. Token private taps on the shoulder or fines of the magnitude of a good lunch are not enough. Public and summary execution is now the only way forward. Here are just a few examples of what Roland “Fatty” Cornish and his crew have presided over.
