Macmillan Stewart Investments Ltd
What this means for you
Because Macmillan Stewart Investments Ltd has been declared in default, you can't complain via the Financial Ombudsman Service in the normal way. Instead, eligible customers can apply to the Financial Services Compensation Scheme for compensation.
Background
Macmillan Stewart Investments Ltd (FRN 135935) was declared in default by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme on 28 March 1996. The firm's specific product offerings cannot be determined from available records, limiting identification of the compensation framework applicable to affected customers. Former clients may be entitled to FSCS compensation subject to the relevant product category limits, though the absence of product-type data prevents precise specification of entitlements.
