Identity

Companies House keeps a separate officer record for each name and address a person has used. These are the records found under the name, how confident the match was and why, and which the client included.

Other registers

Each register was searched for the subject's registered names (Jane EXEMPLAR; Jane Mary EXEMPLAR; Jane M EXEMPLAR). An entry is shown when its name contains every part of one of those names; its birth date is compared with the month and year of birth on the confirmed officer records. An entry whose birth date differs is shown as excluded; one with no birth date is a shared name, not a finding.

Disqualified directors register

A search of the register for the subject's name found no entries with that name.^[3]

UK Sanctions List

The UK Sanctions List dated 16 October 2026 (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) was searched: 1 listed name contains the subject's, shown below, and no listed entity names a company on this report.^[14]

US Treasury: OFAC's SDN list

The US Treasury's SDN list published 30 October 2026 (Office of Foreign Assets Control, US Department of the Treasury) was searched: 1 listed name contains the subject's, shown below, and 2 listed entities carry the number or name of a company on this report, shown below.^[16]

• ORRIN HOLDINGS LIMITED (90004), a listed entity under CYBER2 (Block), designated 12 March 2021, is listed with the company number 01000001, that of EXEMPLAR VENTURES LTD.^[16]
• ORRIN HOLDINGS LIMITED (90004), a listed entity under CYBER2 (Block), designated 12 March 2021, is listed with the company number 01000003, that of HALLAM WHARF LTD.^[16]

EU consolidated financial sanctions list

The EU's consolidated financial sanctions list generated 23 October 2026 (European Commission, Financial Sanctions Files) was searched: no listed name contains the subject's, and 1 listed entity carries the number or name of a company on this report, shown below.^[15]

• Orrin Holdings Limited (EU.9003.03), a listed entity under CYB, designated 15 March 2021, is listed with the company number 01000002, that of ORRIN & VALE TRADING LTD.^[15]

Individual Insolvency Register

The Individual Insolvency Register (Insolvency Service, England and Wales: bankruptcies, debt relief orders, individual voluntary arrangements and the restrictions that follow them) was searched on 6 November 2026 for “jane exemplar” (2 records), “jane mary exemplar” (1 record), “jane m exemplar” (2 records). 2 records carry a name containing the subject's; the case details were read only where the birth date is the subject's.^[8]

Scotland's Register of Insolvencies, kept by the Accountant in Bankruptcy, was not searched; Scottish sequestrations and protected trust deeds appear here only where The Gazette advertised them. The register can be searched at https://www.aib.gov.uk/systems/register-of-insolvencies.

The Gazette (personal insolvency)

The Gazette's personal insolvency notices (statutory demands, bankruptcy and administration orders, trustees' appointments, dividends, annulments and discharges, and Scottish sequestrations and trust deeds), as held in our copy of the notices published from 1 January 1998 to 26 September 2026, were searched on 6 November 2026 for the subject's registered names. 3 cases carry a name containing the subject's, each shown as the chain of its notices.^[6]

HMRC's list of deliberate tax defaulters

HMRC's current list of deliberate tax defaulters (September 2026), which names people and businesses penalised for deliberately defaulting on more than £50,000 of tax and keeps each name for twelve months, was searched on 6 November 2026 for the subject's registered names and the names of 7 companies on this report. 3 entries match by name; an entry counts only where its postcode is one on the subject's officer records or a company's registered office.^[7]

Charity Commission (England and Wales)

The Charity Commission's register of charities and their trustees (its extract of 20 October 2026), which lists every trustee of every registered charity by name with no date of birth or address, was searched on 6 November 2026 for the subject's registered names. 3 trusteeships are listed under those names; 2 were confirmed by the client as the subject's. A listing the client did not confirm is a shared name, not a finding.^[2]

The Commission's register of removed trustees, which names people the Commission or a court has removed as trustees and states no date of birth, was searched on 6 November 2026 for the subject's family name (exemplar). 1 entry's name contains the subject's; an entry is linked to the subject only through a trusteeship the client confirmed at the same charity, and otherwise is a shared name.^[2]

FCA Financial Services Register

The FCA's Financial Services Register, which lists the people approved for or prohibited from roles at firms the FCA or PRA regulates and states no date of birth or address, was searched on 6 November 2026 for the subject's registered names. 3 individuals are listed under those names; 1 is linked to a company on this report by its company number. Any other listing is a shared name, not a finding.^[4]

Directorships abroad

France's register of companies (INPI's national register, read through the government's API Recherche d'entreprises) was searched on 6 November 2026 for the subject's registered names, for directors born in March 1975. A director whose name contains every part of one of the subject's registered names, and who was born in that month, holds 2 roles at French companies: a strong match, not proof that it is the same person.^[1]

For “Jane Exemplar”, a search by the name alone also finds 1 French company whose director of that name was born in another month; the register's search matches similar names too, so this counts possible namesakes, not people, and it is not listed. For “Jane Mary EXEMPLAR”, a search by the name alone finds no French company outside the month of birth. For “Jane M EXEMPLAR”, a search by the name alone finds no French company outside the month of birth. The register gives no appointment dates: a role shown may be current or past, and a past role may not be shown.

Norway's register of roles (the Brønnøysund Register Centre's file of 4 November 2026) was searched for the subject's registered names, for people born in March 1975. A person whose name contains every part of one of the subject's registered names, and who was born in that month, holds 2 current roles in Norwegian organisations: a strong match, not proof that it is the same person.^[1]

For “Jane Exemplar”, 1 other current role is held by people of that name born in another month; they are counted, not listed. For “Jane Mary EXEMPLAR”, no other current role is held by a person of that name. For “Jane M EXEMPLAR”, no other current role is held by a person of that name. The file shows current roles only, without their start dates. Contains data under the Norwegian licence for Open Government data (NLOD) distributed by the Brønnøysund Register Centre.

Not searched:

• Germany and the Netherlands: the law does not allow their commercial registers to be searched by a person's name.
• Ireland, Guernsey, the Isle of Man, Gibraltar, Luxembourg, Malta, the British Virgin Islands and the Cayman Islands: their registers can be searched by company, not by a director's name.
• Jersey and Estonia: their registers publish directors' birth dates, but their terms do not allow them to be reused in a service like this one without permission.
• Cyprus, Denmark and the United States: their registers name directors without a date of birth, so a match could only ever be a shared name.
• Other countries: their registers have not been reviewed for this service.

Timeline

Each company on the confirmed records, from the subject's first appointment: solid while they held office, a thin line where the company carried on after they left, and each flag where its pattern arose. The dates are those in the companies table and the flags below, each with its source.

Flags

Flags are raised only by the fixed criteria in the methodology. A flag is a prompt to ask a question, not a finding about any person.

People who recur

Each person who held office at two or more of the subject's companies, at any time, named as the register names them, with what became of each company. Companies House keeps a separate officer record for each name and address a person has used; records with the same name and the same month and year of birth are taken as one person. Holding office at the same companies as the subject is a fact of the register, not a finding about either person; each entry says at how many the person was in office at the same time as the subject. A members' voluntary liquidation (the winding up of a solvent company), and a dissolution after one, are not counted as insolvency or dissolution here. People with significant control are not matched across companies, since the register gives them no identifier.

Company details

Sources and methodology

Reading

For each company the report selects the filings that carry what it reports, up to 40 a company: insolvency papers, accounts, the latest two confirmation statements and any filed with updates, the latest two annual returns with a shareholder list, strike-off applications, share allotments and changes to share capital, auditors' statements, resolutions and incorporation papers. It reads them in that order of priority, insolvency papers first, across all the companies, as far as the reading bought allows. Other filings, such as officer and address changes, charges and notices, are shown from the register's filing history and not read. The standard reading, one credit, covered every such filing: 14 filings (14 pages).

Identity matching

Companies House keeps a separate officer record for each name and address a person has used. Records were proposed by name, month and year of birth, shared correspondence addresses and shared appointments, each with a confidence; records with a different month or year of birth are never combined. The client confirmed 4 records and excluded 1 (EXA5DIFFDOB005).

Significant control without an appointment

Companies House's daily snapshot of the register of people with significant control of 27 September 2026 (published at download.companieshouse.gov.uk) was searched for the subject's name with the confirmed records' month and year of birth, at companies not on those records. Each entry found was read from the register and given a confidence: high where a correspondence address matched a confirmed record, medium otherwise. The client included 2 and excluded 1 (01000012).

Charity trusteeships

When the records were confirmed, the Charity Commission's register of charities and their trustees (its extract of 20 October 2026) was searched for the subject's name and the confirmed records' names, every part of a name required in the listing. The register states no date of birth or address, so each listing was offered to the client as a shared name (high confidence only where the charity is a company on the confirmed appointments) for the client to confirm or exclude. The client confirmed 2 and excluded 1 (7654321).

Disqualified directors register

A search of the register for the subject's name found no entries with that name.^[3]

The Gazette

The Gazette's corporate insolvency notices — petitions to wind up a company, and their dismissal — published from 27 September 2020 to 26 September 2026 were checked for each of the 7 companies: 3 found^[5]. Winding-up orders, liquidators and administrators come from the Companies House register. Contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0.

Computed from the register

The filing deadlines and officer counts in the companies table are arithmetic on dates the register states, by these rules. They are not read from any document.

• Accounts of a private company or LLP are due nine months after the end of the period they cover (Companies Act 2006 s442).
• A confirmation statement is due 14 days after the end of the review period it is made up to (Companies Act 2006 s853A).
• An annual return (the confirmation statement's predecessor, to June 2016) was due 28 days after the date it was made up to (Companies Act 2006 s854).
• A filing counts as late when the register's filing date is after the deadline computed from its made-up date; filings without a stated made-up date, and amended accounts, are not counted.
• Officer turnover counts every appointment in the company's officer list by its appointment and resignation years; it names no officer.

Limitations

• The Companies House register does not cover sole traders, partnerships other than limited liability partnerships, overseas companies not registered in the UK, court records or credit data.
• Companies House does not verify the information filed with it.
• Identity matching links officer records by name, month and year of birth, correspondence address and shared appointments. The client confirmed which records to include.
• Some filings were scanned paper documents read by optical character recognition; figures read this way are shown with their recognition confidence.
• Figures whose quoted text could not be matched to the cited page are marked as unverified. They are shown for completeness and do not raise flags.
• The EU's list is the European Commission's file generated on 23 October 2026; designations published in the Official Journal of the EU after it was generated are not in it. Only the information published in the Official Journal of the EU is deemed authentic.
• Directorships outside the UK are searched in France and Norway only; other countries' registers cannot lawfully be searched by a person's name, give no date of birth, or do not allow reuse (each is listed under Directorships abroad). France's register gives no appointment dates, so a French role shown may be current or past, and a past role may not be shown; Norway's shows current roles only, without their start dates.
• A designation on the US Treasury's SDN list or the EU's list binds US persons, or business within the EU, under those regimes; it is shown as information, not as a prohibition in UK law.
• Scotland's Register of Insolvencies, kept by the Accountant in Bankruptcy, was not searched: the Individual Insolvency Register covers England and Wales, and Scottish sequestrations and protected trust deeds appear in this report only where The Gazette advertised them.
• The Gazette's personal insolvency notices were searched for the publication days our copy covers, 1 January 1998 to 26 September 2026; notices published outside those days were not seen.
• HMRC publishes each deliberate tax defaulter for twelve months only; an entry an earlier report on this subject matched is kept and stated as the list of its month, and the list holds no entry older than that.
• The Charity Commission's registers cover England and Wales only, and trustees of exempt and excepted charities are not registered. The register states no date of birth or address for a trustee, so a trusteeship is treated as the subject's only where the client confirmed it; a listing the client did not confirm is a shared name.
• The FCA's Financial Services Register covers people approved for, or prohibited from, roles at firms the FCA or PRA regulates; a person who never held such a role will not appear. It states no date of birth or address, so an individual is linked to the subject only where a firm of theirs carries one of the subject's company numbers on the register; any other listing is a shared name.
