== Is this investment report a financial promotion? == According to the FCA, "a person must not, in the course of business, communicate an invitation or inducement to engage in investment activity (i.e. a financial promotion) unless: # he is an authorised person; or # the content of the communication is approved for the purposes of section 21 by an authorised person; or # the communication is exempt under an order made by the Treasury under section 21(5) β the Financial Promotion Order (as amended)."<ref>https://www.handbook.fca.org.uk/handbook/PERG/8/3.html</ref> For a communication to be considered a financial promotion, the communication must contain an element of invitation or inducement, amongst other things<ref>https://www.handbook.fca.org.uk/handbook/PERG/8/3.html</ref>; for a communication to be considered an invitation or inducement, the communication must βhave the purpose or intent of leading a person to engage in investment activity".<ref>https://www.handbook.fca.org.uk/handbook/PERG/8/4.html#D620</ref> In relation to the said report/communication, the communicator of the communication is anonymous, and, therefore, the purpose of the communicator, and the purpose of the communication itself, is unknown. The FCA recognises that the matter cannot be without doubt.<ref>https://www.handbook.fca.org.uk/handbook/PERG/8/4.html#D620</ref> That said, the purpose of the Stockhub platform is to help a person to make better investment decisions (i.e. itβs not to lead a person to engage in investment activity). Indeed, the purpose of the platform is reflected in the platform's monetization strategy (i.e. donations and advertising). In other words, the owner of the platform (i.e. Stockhub Limited) does not benefit from a person engaging in investment activities in the said investment; the owner benefits from a person making better investment decisions. Accordingly, it is the view of the Stockhub company that the said investment report is NOT a financial promotion.
