AIM secondary fundraising falls by a third
The amount of money raised on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) through secondary fundraising has decreased by 33% from last year.
Secondary fundraising describes the sale of post-IPO shares on the secondary market between investors.
Research from national accountancy group UHY Hacker Young showed that only £1.18bn was brought in through secondary fundraising over the past year to August 2023, compared to £1.8bn the previous year.
UHY Hacker Young said: “The fall in the amount of money raised could suggest that investors in AIM companies have been less willing to support AIM companies pursue growth plans.”
There has been a continued decline from a high of £6bn in fundraising in 2021.
UHY Hacker Young also said that investors have been less supportive of UK shares over the past few years.
Additionally, the perceived risks of UK shares having risen since the Liz Truss Budget in September 2022.
Rumours are also circulating that chancellor Rachel Reeves may remove the inheritance tax break on AIM shares ahead of the Budget on 30 October.
Currently, shares in many AIM companies are not subject to IHT, making them more valuable to private investors.
In the past 12 months, only one company managed to raise more than £100m through secondary fundraisings on the AIM market.
UHY Hacker Young partner Colin Wright said: “One of the great successes of the AIM market has been the ability of companies to raise money after their IPO to keep powering their growth.
“That element of AIM hasn’t been working recently. The amount of money is down sharply.
“You can’t blame that entirely on possible tax changes for AIM shares, but the speculation isn’t helping.
“The AIM market is a vital part of the UK’s efforts to create growth companies so reducing the tax breaks attached to it would be counterproductive.
“I’m pretty sure the stock exchange would like the government to clear the air and confirm they have no intention of changing the tax status of AIM shares.”
Wright added that investor focus has shifted away from AIM towards the US market, mainly due to AI-related tech companies performing well.
A consequence of this is that smaller UK companies are struggling to attract the attention of investors and the capital needed for growth and expansion.
This, he said, has resulted in the valuations of UK listed companies being lower than counterparts on other stock markets and increases the possibility of takeovers of UK companies.
Wright concluded: “The government does need to find ways to encourage more investments in companies on UK stock markets so that they can remain competitive with other countries.”

McDonald’s fans go wild for new breakfast menu item saying it is EXACTLY like a classic American snack
MCDONALD’S lovers have been going wild for its new breakfast menu item saying it reminds them of a classic American snack.
The home of the Golden Arches will soon start selling mini hashbrowns.
McDonald’s already sells larger hashbrowns as part of its regular breakfast menu.
However, these new fried potato bites will come in a bigger portion but will be smaller in size, with a five-pieces costing £1.49.
You can also get a 15-piece sharebox for £2.99.
Talk of the new menu item is already causing quite a stir on social media, with many fans saying it is exactly like a popular American snack.
Commenting on a social media post one user said: “Looks like Tater Tots to me.”
“Otherwise known as a Tater Tot,” said another.
Tater Tots are a popular snack in America and are made by grating up pieces of potatoes which are then deep-fried in to small ball shapes.
The starch-based side is also sold in the UK with Sainsbury’s selling a frozen version of them called Hash Brown Bites for £2.10.
Birds Eye also sells something very similar called Potatoe Bites for £2.50 in Asda, but you will have to cook these at home yourself.
Fans were still excited to try out McDonald’s take on the classic, with one customer saying they needed to be an “all-day item.”
While another said they “needed to try them”.
If you are keen to try out the fried snack you will have to wait untill October 16, when they officially land in stores.
You will also have to get to your local Maccies bright and early because they will only be available from 6am-11 am.
It is still unclear whether or not the morning dish will become a permanent menu item or will only be available for a limited period of time.
All you need to know about McDonald’s
HERE’S all the crucial information about McDonald’s you’ve always wanted to know…
In 2022, the home of the Golden Arches added mini potato waffles to its morning menu but they were axed the following year.
At the time, fans said they tasted better than its hashbrowns.
Customers have seen a number of limited menu items arrive in stores over the past year.
This includes the Grimmace Shake which was only available for one week back in August.
Changes at McDonald’s
Talk of a new menu item comes just days after Maccies hinted the McRib could once again land in stores.
A test notification for the boneless pork burger was sent out on the McDonald’s rewards app.
When asked if the McRib is coming back, a spokesperson said: “McDonald’s is always looking to innovate with new and exciting menu items, as well as bringing back the fan favourites.
“If you’re keen to be the first to receive more info from McDonald’s stay tuned.”
The McRib was first added to the main UK McDonald’s menu in 1981 but was taken off just four years later.
The burger, which comes with a boneless pork patty covered in barbecue sauce and topped with onions and pickles, has made temporary reappearances since.
It has remained a permanent fixture at McDonald’s in Germany.
What else is new at McDonald’s?
McDonald’s will regularly switch up its menu to make way for new items.
Earlier this month, the fast food chain changed its menu to coincide with the launch of McDonald’s monopoly.
To take part in the game you must collect stickers that represent train stations or colour-coordinated streets.
If you are curious about how the game works and what prizes you can win, read our article here.
To mark the return of its sticker peeling game McDonald’s has brought back a number of fan-favourites
These include:
- Mozzarella Dippers
- Philly Cheese Stack.
- Chicken Big Mac,
- Galaxy Chocolate McFlurry
- Twix Chocolate McFlurry
- Twix Latte
If you are keen to try any of these new menu items you will need to act quickly as they are set to be pulled from restaurants in about three weeks.
How to save at McDonald’s
You could end up being charged more for a McDonald’s meal based solely on the McDonald’s restaurant you choose.
Research by The Sun found a Big Mac meal can be up to 30% cheaper at restaurants just two miles apart from each other.
You can pick up a Big Mac and fries for just £2.99 at any time by filling in a feedback survey found on McDonald’s receipts.
The receipt should come with a 12-digit code which you can enter into the Food for Thought website alongside your submitted survey.
You’ll then receive a five-digit code which is your voucher for the £2.99 offer.
There are some deals and offers you can only get if you have the My McDonald’s app, so it’s worth signing up to get money off your meals.
The MyMcDonald’s app can be downloaded on iPhone and Android phones and is quick to set up.
You can also bag freebies and discounts on your birthday if you’re a My McDonald’s app user.
The chain has recently sent out reminders to app users to fill out their birthday details – otherwise they could miss out on birthday treats.

Dollar Tree shoppers are raving about $1.25 ‘perfect sized’ carvable pumpkins that are Michaels dupes but 88% cheaper
FALL-lovers are raving about a $1.25 craft piece from Dollar Tree.
Shoppers have dubbed the store’s carvable pumpkins as “perfect size” for getting your craft on this Halloween.
The foam ornaments, which are four inches tall and five and a half inches wide, can be turned into vases, candy buckets or used as part of your spooky display.
They’re also a smaller dupe for the Michaels’ Orange Craft Pumpkins by Ashland.
But while the Michaels version will set you back $19.99, Dollar Tree’s Carvable Foam Pumpkins are 88% cheaper at $1.25.
The inexpensive design has received rave reviews from crafty Americans.
One self-confessed fall lover said: “I’ve used these for the last couple of years for DIY and fall home decor.
“They’re so much fun to paint and decorate your own way.
“They’re very affordable and easy to use.”
Another quipped: “These pumpkins can be carved and used to make different types of pumpkins.
“Such as painted, or covered with fabric or yarn.
“They are easy to work with.”
A third beamed: “There’s so much you can do with these.
“All you need is some paint, felt, craft wood, yarn, an X-acto knife and glue.
“If you can imagine it, you can make it!”
The Michaels pumpkins have similarly good reviews, but for the price of one, you can pick up 15 in Dollar Tree.
Halloween dupes
There are several Halloween dupes to help you celebrate on a budget.
Dollar Tree has $3 haunted plants that are 90% cheaper than the ones at Michael’s.
The discount store also has hanging pats for just $1.25, while a major competitor sells them for $15.
Pottery Barn fans found a dupe for the store’s famous floating ghosts that are 61% cheaper.
Shoppers even found a dupe for Disney’s famous character pumpkins at Kohl’s.
A blurb on the pricier crafts reads: “Brighten up your Halloween decor with this craft pumpkin.
“You can decorate this accent with sparkly embellishments, paint with any multi-surface paint or carve it with a hot knife tool.
“Display it among LED pillar candles on your mantel.”

Firms need help to better identify vulnerable customers
Numerous firms would benefit from assistance to better understand the characteristics of vulnerability and identify vulnerable customers.
This is according to research from the Chartered Insurance Institute (CII), in partnership with FWD Research.
The CII undertook a survey of its members in July 2024 of those directly involved in Board reporting about the challenges they had encountered in producing the first Consumer Duty reports.
Off the back of this research and a roundtable discussion, the CII has published a white paper “that seeks to support firms’ compliance with the Financial Conduct Authority’s (FCA) reporting requirements under the Consumer Duty legislation.”
Roundtable attendees also said they would welcome advice on storing and sharing information on vulnerable customers.
Most firms said they would “welcome more guidance” from the regulator on how they should meet the reporting requirements.
Other firms added however, the time being invested in the reporting process helped to shape internal conversations that had already driven positive changes for their customers.
Following this research, the CII has recommended that firms should:
- Ensure that data and reporting requirements are used not only to satisfy reporting requirements, but are baked into product, service and process improvement cycles
- Work with professional bodies to develop research best practice
- Identify whether they have a robust understanding of vulnerability for their customer base
- Place more emphasis on joining the data dots around individual customers or customer groups in real time
- And that leadership teams in firms should take active interest in reviewing customer needs
CII Group chief executive Matthew Hill said: “The Chartered Insurance Institute sought experiences of writing these initial reports to understand any challenges that might have been encountered, and to make recommendations that might assist other firms in future.
“We are sharing our findings and recommendations with the FCA and the wider sector through this white paper, and we will continue to explore with the regulator and our members what more we can do to assist firms in meeting the standards of care expected from the introduction of the Consumer Duty.”
FWD research director Martin Grimwood added: “It’s clear that many firms have yet to understand vulnerability amongst their customers.
“Without a top-down view, which quantifies how prevalent different types of vulnerability is within a customer base, it is difficult for firms to create informed strategic plans that will meet the needs of vulnerable customers.
“We are delighted the CII have chosen to endorse our approach to understanding vulnerability and look forward to helping CII members implement this key requirement of Consumer Duty and vulnerability guidance.”

Major update on mortgage prisoners as judge makes ruling in TSB case
THOUSANDS of borrowers who claim they are ‘mortgage prisoners’ have been ruled against by a high court judge.
The case was brought forward by former Northern Rock mortgage holders who claim TSB Bank charged them unfair interest rates on their “Whistletree” mortgages.
The borrowers claim they have been stuck paying a standard variable rate (SVR) 2.29% higher than TSB’s own rate, in some cases for up to eight years.
The bank opposed the claims, and said that charging borrowers different rates is a basic feature of the mortgage market.
In the ruling, Judge Nicholas Thompsell said TSB has not breached the terms of the borrowers’ mortgage contracts.
The case, led by borrowers’ lawyer Tim Lord KC, focused on Northern Rock customers whose mortgages were transferred to TSB after the bank collapsed in 2008.
Lord argued that many customers were unable to switch to cheaper rates or move to another lender because stricter mortgage rules introduced in 2014 meant they couldn’t pass new affordability checks.
He claimed this left them mortgage prisoners, with TSB “disproportionately profiting” from the situation.
But TSB, represented by Sonia Tolaney KC, said the bank offers different products to customers with varying risk profiles, and that this was “neither surprising nor unfair.”
In his 49-page ruling, Judge Thompsell agreed, stating that TSB was following the same SVR Northern Rock had previously applied.
He ruled that the rate, now called the ‘Whistletree SVR’, is simply a continuation of the original rate and that TSB was acting within the terms of the mortgage contracts.
Following the ruling, a TSB spokesperson said: “We welcome the court’s decision today, which recognises that TSB acted in accordance with the terms of Whistletree mortgage contracts.”
TSB added that more than two-thirds of affected customers had switched to a new mortgage product or settled their mortgages since 2016.
The borrowers lost this round but their legal team isn’t giving up.
Matthew Patching, a partner at law firm Harcus Parker, said: “Our clients are disappointed with the result, but are looking forward to progressing their claims to the next stage.”
A further hearing is expected to take place in the case.
How is the aftermath of Northen Rock still being felt?
Mum of four and self-employed hairdresser has had to pay more than £91,000 extra on her mortgage since 2008
Mortgage prisoner Rebecca Wendel is currently paying 9.79% interest on her home loan.
This means that her mortgage bill is £2,150 a month, which is up from £1,049 in August 2022, when she was still paying over the market rate at 6.75%.
Since the collapse of Northern Rock in 2008, which saw her loan sold to Heliodor Mortgages, part of Topaz Finance, she has been paying excessive amounts.
Sadly this is not uncommon, with Rebecca making up just one of 200,000 homeowners who had their mortgages sold to finance companies, which have continued to charge above market rates for the loans.
As a result, these people have become known as mortgage prisoners because the stricter lending restrictions mean they cannot pass affordability checks which would allow them to access lower rates.
What is a mortgage prisoner?
A mortgage prisoner is a homeowner who is unable to switch to a better mortgage deal, even though they are keeping up to date on their payments.
Mortgage prisoners are often trapped with their existing mortgage, paying more money than they need to.
This is because when an introductory mortgage rate ends, the borrower typically moves on to the lender’s SVR, which is usually more expensive than the previous rate.
In 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) estimated that there were 47,000 mortgage prisoners in the UK.

Exact temperature to heat your home to stop mould and condensation while keeping bills down
NOT only is mould damaging for your health to have in your home, it is also an eyesore and can be costly to fix if the issue spreads.
With energy costs still relatively high, it has become a balancing act between avoiding big bills, and heating your home enough to keep the green stuff away.
So, what is the right temperature to avoid mould building up in your home?
Ideally you will want to maintain a consistent room temperature of around 20°C, and avoid letting it drop below 16°C.
You should also aim to keep your humidity levels between 30% and 60%, any higher and there is too much moisture in the air.
You can use a thermometer and hygrometer to monitor the temperature and humidity in your home.
While these may sound expensive, in a pleasant surprise you can pick up one of each for a collective total of around £20 from Amazon.
Ben Gallizzi, energy expert at Uswitch, said: “The Energy Saving Trust recommends that people in good health heat their home to between 18 and 21 degrees celsius.
“They also estimate that people can save 10% on their energy bills for every degree they turn down their thermostat, so if you’re trying to keep costs low then do bear this in mind.”
That means if you have your temperature set at the higher end, you can still turn the thermostat down and save cash while keeping mould at bay.
How to prevent and stop mould?
Mould forms because the air holds moisture, which is something anyone who owns a dehumidifier will have seen first hand. The warmer the air, the more moisture it can hold.
If moist air is cooled by contact with cold surfaces, such as walls, windows or mirrors, the moisture condenses into water droplets, known as condensation.
The result of this condensation is often mould, which primarily affects the airways and lungs, but also has an impact on your eyes and skin.
In fact, the respiratory effects of damp and mould can cause serious illness and, in the most severe cases, death.
Don’t worry though, preventing mould and removing mould are simple enough processes.
A hack to remove mould involves mixing one part bleach with four parts water, and applying the solution to the mouldy area with a cloth or brush.
Scrub gently until the mould is gone, then wipe away the bleach and dry the area.
Another tip is to mix equal parts white vinegar and water in a bottle and spray the mouldy area.
Vinegar is a natural mould killer that can help loosen mould from fabric.
To prevent mould, you want to reduce moisture levels, so simply opening windows and doors to let fresh air in can do the job.
If you are still worried about mould potentially building up in your home, a sure fire way to help prevent it is the use of a dehumidifier.
While these do vary in price, you can pick up a small one from Amazon for within the £40 to £50 range.
Gallizzi said: “As winter arrives, many people dry wet clothes on radiators or airers, but this releases moisture into your home.
“Try to avoid this where you can or consider using a dehumidifier to remove excess water from the air. This helps to combat condensation and prevent mould growth.
“As well as plug-in dehumidifiers, you could also try moisture absorbing tabs, which can minimise condensation from building up on your windows.”
Energy bills are set to go up again, so brace yourself
The average household’s annual gas and electricity bill under the July to September 2024 price cap is £1,568, according to government data.
That’s a big drop from the peak of £2,380 we saw between October 2022 and June 2023, but it’s still 29% higher than what we were paying in Winter 2021/22.
But there’s more bad news, the price cap will jump by 10% to £1,717 from October 2024, and experts say it’ll rise another 3% in early 2025.
Right now, gas costs 5.5p per kilowatt hour (kWh) and electricity is 23.4p per kWh, with standing charges at 31.4p a day for gas and 60.1p a day for electricity.
From September 2024 however, gas prices will climb to 6.2p per kWh and electricity will go up to 24.5p per kWh, with a slight increase in standing charges too.

Exact errors to spot on five little-known coin designs in your change that could be worth up to £3,000
YOU could be quids in if you’re able to spot these little-known designs with rare errors in your spare change.
There’s a chance the small coins in your change might be worth a big fortune.
Rare coins are known to pick up large sums of money.
If you discover a sought-after coin in your change, you can make money on it by selling them at auction, either online or in person, or through a dealer.
There are some coins which are known to fetch large sums of cash, such as the Kew Gardens 50p and the commemorative 50p coins minted to mark the London 2012 games.
But there are also lesser-known designs that are worth keeping an eye out for – as well as error coins.
A coin with a minting error could be worth a small fortune because very few actually make it into circulation.
The price of a coin varies based on things like demand at the time and how common it is.
It’s important to remember that you aren’t guaranteed to fetch huge amounts if you do choose to sell your change.
Anyone can list a coin on eBay and charge whatever amount they wish, but it’s only ever worth what someone is willing to pay.
By checking the recently sold items you will get a more accurate indication of what people are willing to pay for a specific coin.
If you managed to sell all of the coins mentioned below for their top value, you could make up to £3,312.
Undated 20p – £100
The undated 20p is known as the “holy grail of change collecting”, ChangeChecker previously told The Sun.
Collectors have been known to search far and wide for the valuable coin ever since it entered circulation in 2008.
Back then, The Royal Mint decided to change the positioning of the date on every 20p piece, moving it from the back to the front.
But in an accidental error, a batch of between 50,000 and 250,000 coins was released without any date at all.
Kimberley Day from RWB auctions said: “These British coins were the first in more than three hundred years to enter circulation with no date.
“Real examples should have no date on either side but otherwise look similar to standard 20ps. These coins sell online for up to £100.”
We checked eBay and found that one of these error coins sold for £75 on September 25.
While another sold for £69.99 on September 20, and a third for £68 on September 15.
Olympic Aquatics 50p – £3,000
This rare coin features an image of a swimmer slicing through the water on its reverse.
But the coin we are familiar with today wasn’t actually the original design, Kimberley said.
“Rare early examples show lines across the swimmer’s face, whereas the more common type shows no lines,” she added.
“If you have collector’s edition of this coin with the 50p sealed in a purple and teal card it is worth checking if you have the rare variant.
What are the most rare and valuable coins?
“Most examples are found in this type of packaging but loose examples have been found in people’s change.
“Genuine examples of this error have sold for £3,000 or more.”
The coin was minted in 2011, along with 28 other designs that each featured a sport played at the 2021 Olympics.
The games were hosted in London that year, so the coin collection came out to celebrate the piece of British sporting history.
It isn’t known how many of the original design Olympic Aquatics 50ps are out there.
We spotted one of these coins which sold for a whopping £3,766 on eBay on August 4.
£2 Inverted Britannia effigy – £150
A small number of 2015 Britannia £2 coins were minted with the Queen’s head upside down.
They accidentally entered circulation and they could now be worth a small fortune.
The Queen’s head is offset by about 150 degrees compared to the Britannia design on the other side.
It’s thought that the error was caused by a loose die rotating during the striking process.
The coin has a mintage figure of just 650,000, making it one of the scarcest in circulation.
It’s estimated that as few as one in 200 – or approximately 3,250 – of them feature the inverted effigy”, ChangeChecker previously told The Sun.
When The Sun checked eBay, we found one that sold for £150 on August 12.
Navy £2 with ‘flag’ error – £17
There are two different design variations of the 2015 Navy £2 coin that were released into circulation.
The original Navy £2 design show the coin without any markings on the top right of the mast, while the other appears to have a flag flying.
Collectors speculated that two different designs were struck, but it was later confirmed as a striking error caused by a cracked die.
It is unknown how many of these error coins are in circulation, but Kate says it is worth checking the ones in your collection.
The worth of these coins varies across eBay, with one going for a fiver on August 18 and another selling for £17 on July 22.
Sir Isaac Newton 50p – £45
The Sir Isaac Newton 50p was first issued in 2017 to mark the 375th anniversary of the famous scientist’s birth.
But eagle-eyed collectors soon noticed something a little different on some of their 50ps.
Several collectors reported finding an error on the obverse where several extra lines appeared across the Queen’s portrait.
Again, it’s thought to be an error caused during the striking process during a ‘die clash’.
It’s not known how many of these error coins are in circulation.
One of these coins sold for £45 on September 8, while another went for £30 on August 30.
How do I check if my coin is rare?
Rare coins and valuable notes can be worth tens of thousands of times their face value.
But sometimes it’s just tiny differences which make them so lucrative.
The most valuable coins tend to be ones with low mintage numbers or an error.
Those qualities typically make them valuable to collectors.
Your next step would be to check if your coin is still available to purchase in superior Brilliant Uncirculated quality from an official Royal Mint distributor, according to Change Checker.
Certified Brilliant Uncirculated coins have been specially struck to a superior unblemished quality which set them apart from the coins you may find in pockets.
Selling a coin at auction or through a dealer
There are many different factors to consider when trying to value a coin, including its condition and mintage, so it’s important to do your homework first.
If you’ve got a coin that you would like to sell at auction, you can contact The Royal Mint’s Collectors Service.
It has a team of experts who can help you to authenticate and value your coin.
You’ll need to enquire via email, and a member of the valuation team will contact get back to you.
Take a picture of your coin and attach this to the email – you can find the details on The Royal Mint’s website.
Be aware that you will be charged for this service though – the cost will vary depending on the size of your collection.
If you are looking to buy a coin online through a marketplace such as eBay, it’s important to know exactly what you are purchasing.
This is because anyone can list a coin on eBay and charge whatever amount they wish.
You should also be wary of fakes online – and keep in mind that on eBay a buyer could pull out, which means the coin won’t have sold for the price it says it has.
Meanwhile, we have put together a guide on the rarest and most valuable coins.
We also tell you what you should do if you find a lucky penny in your pocket.
