§ 1Disclaimer & legal basis
This report is a Public-Information Assessment (PI) issued under TIB-FRM-1.1 § 27 and TIB-MTH-1.0 § 20. It applies the published TIB-IS v1.0 universal Standards and the TIB-FRM-PF-1.0 Module to publicly available materials about the named firm. It is not an audit, regulatory finding, credit rating, or engagement-based TIB Report. The PI determination scale (PI-Pass / PI-Conditional / PI-Concern / PI-Insufficient evidence) is distinct from, and weaker than, the engagement-based scale (Pass / Conditional / Fail).
Lawful basis: nominative fair use of the firm's name to identify the subject of commentary; truth defence in respect of factual statements (each cited in § 8); right to express opinion on disclosed factual premises clearly labelled "indicative". No firm logos or copyright-protected materials are reproduced beyond short fair-use quotations. Equal-treatment principle applies: same methodology, evidence standards, right of reply, and take-down policy as every PI subject.

On the basis of publicly available materials only, one or more public-record concerns were identified that warrant attention. Specifically: FCA public warning issued against 'Alpha Capital Group / https://alphacapitalgroup.uk' — firm 'is not authorised by us ... you should avoid dealing with this firm and beware of scams' (https://www.fca.org.uk/news/warnings/alpha-capital-group-https-alphacapitalgroupuk). Firm is not FCA-authorised; customers have no FOS/FSCS protection.. The firm is invited to provide context or counter-evidence under the right of reply.
This indicative determination is not a Pass under TIB-FRM-1.1 § 13 and shall not be cited as such. The firm may obtain an engagement-based Verified Determination by electing PI-to-FV conversion under TIB-FRM-1.1 § 27.7.
