won't argue with that - although I wonder if FS planned to do what what *unding not square" seem to have done: build up a loan book focusing on quantity not quality, change the user experience to a "black box" float and make a killing in the IPO (one director made £16m) before the share price tanked. As I said they have several disastrous loans on their books but I see no evidence whatsoever they give a monkey's. As I see it there is zero chance FS will be able to float given their loan book and the fact the market has seen what happened to "unding not square" so we will just have to trust they will turn things around...

Sir, you have used "trust" and "FS" in the same sentence, are the two compatible?

Most of them were a disaster from inception regardless of the FS default process. Of course, many had terribly overvalued securities which would result in a loss not matter what. I myself, being inexperienced and overconfident, made stupid decisions to invest in some of them, such as the garden sheds. That is on me. However, how can one justify FS putting up a supplemental development loan stating that the property is near-completed and just requires final touches and then, when the 6-month period lapses (awfully long for final touches), sitting idly or "being in discussions with the borrower" for another year or two before initiating any recovery action? And then, when they finally take action, it turns out that the property is nowhere near completion and, to make things worse, the interest on the first charge has already eaten up all the headroom in the LTV. Lazy for delaying taking action, gullible for not checking on the status of the property, altogether incompetent.

absolutely - I have total trust in FS e.g. trust them to do nothing for these damn boat loans until 2020 at the earliest...
