Companies House TODAY confirms it is invoking investigatory powers under Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023 against Octopus Titan VCT plc

Just ask yourselves why the Octopus Directors continue to refuse to provide the missing Independent Valuation document from the mergers. Does it exist?      probably lost if it ever existed Did it comply with the law?     probably not given past history Why were the valuers later appointed Auditors?  BDO have their tentacles in every aspect of the VCT sector and have proven time and again that they can be relied on to just take the money and do whatever is needed by the Directors. WHY DOES THIS MATTER SO MUCH? Because the whole purpose of Merger Valuations is to provide a once in a lifetime Independent valaution of unquoted investments, something which the entire VCT sector is terrified of doing so they just "bribe" the likes of BDO into merely rubber-stamping the Investment Manager's numbers... AND LOOK WHERE THAT GOT THE OTV2 INVESTORS! £1bn written off after more than £250m paid to Octopus. Nice work if you can get it. Why are the Directors of Octop...

[UPDATE 8 December] The wait is over. 1st High Court hearing listed for "applications" in April 2026.

[UPDATE 8 DECEMBER] In the light of the Government's Press release that the decision has been taken that the Serious Fraud Office is to get involved in the enforcement of Company Law Compliance obligations,  and in the hope that some Direct Access Barrister might read this and offer some pro-bono help -  I disclose the following statements made by Rebecca Hume, Member of Howard Kennedy llp in the application  to which she put her name on 26 November 2025: "Howard Kennedy llp (asks)... the Court to make an order that: ..it be directed that the hearing of this application be conducted in private pursuant to CPR Rule 39.2(3)(a) and (c)  AND ...an order directing that in the interests of justice, the order not be published on the judiciary website.." What are they trying to hide? Should I ask for a direction that the case be heard in Tehran like the ones for  Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe ? Come back Franz Kafka - all is forgiven. ---------------------------------------...
