£1bn has been lost by investors in the Woodford Equity Income Fund (WEIF). The FCA has spent more than two years investigating what went wrong and has still not published any findings. It has, however, produced new guidance for Authorised Fund Managers, the role that Link was supposed to do and allegedly failed to do.
