Prince Andrew faces fresh blow as firm managing his investments shuts down

According to accounts published last week, the company, which had staggering debts of £208,000, was solvent last year, after a £210,000 backing from a unnamed source in December 2023.

But the 64-year-old, who set up the investment fund under the name HRH Andrew Inverness in 2013, was stripped off his UK trade envoy following his links with Jeffrey Epstein. It later emerged, the company failed to make any profit duing nine sets of accounts filed.

Meanwhile, documents showed more than £230,000 has been pulled from his Dragon’s Den-style initiative Pitch@Palace. According to Companies House on December 30, the amount of cash held fell from £454,979 to £220,990 — during the financial year to March 31.

It comes as a Chinese spy who is believed to have close links to Prince Andrew was banned from the UK over fears he could compromise the royal.
