Reuters, in a report carried by MarketScreener, says Britain’s Financial Conduct Authority closed its investigation into Home REIT without taking action. The regulator said it would support the Serious Fraud Office’s continuing investigation and reserved the ability to reconsider its decision if new information emerged.

The separate criminal inquiry concerns suspected fraud and bribery linked to Home REIT’s past management. The SFO announced six arrests in January 2026; those arrests concern allegations under investigation. Home REIT’s chair highlighted the company’s extensive cooperation with the FCA. The FCA decision leaves the SFO inquiry ongoing.

## Research considerations

REIT news can cover acquisitions, operating results, distributions, capital raising, and liquidity. Publicly traded and nontraded structures can have different reporting and liquidity arrangements. Identify the actual vehicle before comparing an announcement with other investments.

- Which REIT or portfolio is covered, and what period does the announcement describe?
- How do the reported figures relate to debt, operating performance, distribution coverage, and liquidity?
