Will Brodie - Offshore Investment Brokers Scam Debt

Hi everybody,

So I am forced to re-post this after deleting it in good faith on request in Dec.

I was wondering if anyone knows the whereabouts of Will Brodie and Nikky Grayson from Offshore Investment Brokers also seen here at https://lnkd.in/e_bSVBsp ?

We have an outstanding debt they owe us of $5000 𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟬 for services rendered.

My last email reply from the company owner Will Brodie stated that:

𝗦𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻, 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗔 𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗗!

Now everybody who knows me know that I am NOT an unreasonable person, and so after quite a few of emails and Whatsapp messages asking very nicely during a p@ndemic where we ALL seriously needed our money...we got NO reply or acknowledgement. I know for a fact that my then-candidate gathered about $1mil AUM during his 3years at OIB, so there HAS to be money and their business and websites are all seemingly functional.

Last time I checked Will Brodie was on LinkedIn at https://lnkd.in/efMBaF_i and also https://lnkd.in/eZ66JMvv and his head of Operations, Nikki Grayson was at https://lnkd.in/eQyfqpTC

Is it unreasonable for me-, after having exhausted ALL other avenues, to have to resort to this?

Its Christmas time (well was)...my own family and I are in a foreign country faaaar from home, family and parents...it's a challenging time in South Africa for my parents and $5000 with the current exchange rate could really help my ageing parents quite a bit amidst loadshedding...and I would've loved to help them out.

Will and Nikky is just ignoring me, probably hoping "I'll go away" or forget about it, but 5c, $5, $50, $50, $5000 or $50 000, it makes no difference, it's a principle and integrity issue, and quite frankly I'm tired of getting the short end of the stick in this often murky-waters industry. 

If their names in the first 3 lines of this post becomes unclickable, then they saw it, un-tagged their names and/or blocked me to try and avoid blowback.

Chancellor confirms Covid-19 salary top-up scheme

Chancellor Rishi Sunak has confirmed a salary top-up scheme designed to minimise job losses over the next six months will be introduced on 1November as tighter Covid-19 restrictions remain in place. 

Speaking in the House of Commons, Sunak outlined the Job Support Scheme and more financial help for businesses this lunchtime (24 September).

Sunak said the resurgence of coronavirus posed a "threat to the fragile economic recovery" and protecting jobs was the government's priority through the "difficult winter months".

All small and medium-sized businesses will be given the option to cut staff hours and pay with the government and employers paying part of the lost wages. Large businesses will be eligible if their turnover has been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.

Sunak said employees will work shorter hours rather than being made redundant. Employees must work at least a third of their contracted hours under the scheme. For the remaining hours, the government and employer will pay a third of the wages each.

This means an employee working 33% of their hours would get 77% of their salary.  He said the plan would " support viable jobs".

From 1 November, for the next six months, the Job Support Scheme will protect viable jobs in businesses who are facing lower demand over the winter months due to Covid-19. pic.twitter.com/8NpIKpQV8y

The measures are needed as the second wave of Covid-19 sweeps the country. Boris Johnson introduced tighter restrictions on public life as a result.

These include pubs and restaurants having to close at 10pm from today (24 September).

The furlough scheme introduced to prevent mass-redundancies at the start of lockdown in March is set to expire next month. Millions of workers are still receiving part of their salary through the scheme.

Elsewhere, the self-employed will also be offered continued support on similar terms to the salary top-up scheme. 

He also outlined a "pay as you grow" scheme for businesses which took government guaranteed loans during the crisis. pandemic. Sunak said: "Loans can now be extended from six to ten years nearly halving the average monthly repayment."

Zurich Middle East launches DEWS app for UAE end-of-service

Zurich Workplace Solutions (Middle East) Limited has teamed up with Smart, the organisation that powers the Smart Pension Mastertrust in the UK, a global technology provider transforming financial well- being across all generations, to launch the Zurich for DEWS app in the UAE.

The app, developed by Smart and fully customised for DEWS, the Dubai Internationall Financial Centre (DIFC) Employee Workplace Savings scheme, provides members with a simple, quick and hassle-free digital way to manage their workplace savings accounts.

Along with creating much-needed transparency over these investments, the app responds to emerging appetite for contactless solutions and seamless experience across multiple channels.

Zurich Middle East said key features for members using the app include:

• Access to their DEWS account from anywhere, at anytime
• Ability to see their latest account value, contribution history and monitor their investments
• Ability to manage their investments and switch their strategies to suit their risk appetite
• Facility to nominate beneficiaries

"When we launched the DEWS plan, we had made a commitment to continually enhance our service offering such that employers and members find the day-to-day interactions easy, intuitive and hassle-free. We want to take away some of the barriers that detract people from making regular savings, and help our members prepare for a secure financial future. The Zurich for DEWS app is the next step in that journey towards financial freedom," said Reena Vivek, senior executive officer at Zurich Workplace Solutions (Middle East) Limited.

Will Wynne, group MD at Smart added, "This partnership really illustrates what's now possible in retirement technology and we are immensely proud of the end result. It's the first of its kind and was created to provide a smooth and simple customer journey, while simultaneously bringing long term savings into the 21st century."

The DIFC's DEWS plan ensures that all contributions by the employer are held in a trust with the Master Trustee, Equiom, on behalf of the employees, and is fully paid out when the employee leaves the employer. That protection is extended to the historical accrued gratuity pots, if these were transferred into the plan, Zurich said.

Swiss watchdog censures Bank SYZ over money laundering rules

Swiss financial market supervisor FINMA reprimanded private Bank SYZ for failing in its duties to root out anti-money laundering in a high-profile case of an Angolan client.

"FINMA found that the bank did not make sufficient efforts to investigate the substantial growth in the client's assets," the watchdog said in a statement, adding it had also failed to clarify the client's high-risk transactions. "The bank did not adequately resolve issues that should have raised suspicions."

FINMA noted the Geneva-based wealth manager had reported suspicions, which enabled criminal prosecutors to investigate the Angolan case. The regulator did not name the client, who has previously been reported as Carlos Manuel de São Vicente, a politically connected Angolan-Portuguese businessman, as finews writes.

Switzerland's public prosecutors froze seven accounts of Carlos Manuel de São Vicente and family members in December 2018 on suspicions of money laundering, according to news website Gotham City, which first reported the news. At nearly $900m it was one of the largest amounts of money frozen by the Alpine nation.

Bank SYZ said it had taken a number of measures to improve the systems it had in place.

"The bank attaches the utmost importance to compliance with its anti-money laundering obligations," it said in an emailed statement. "Unfortunately, for a specific business relationship, the procedures put in place proved to be inadequate."
