The offices of the fund management group Equititrust has reportedly been raided by the Australian Securities and Investigations Commission and has had their company’s financial services licence removed.

The raid has come after years of trouble for the firm, which has frozen investors’ funds after it suffered significant damage during the financial crisis. The company is suffering under millions of debt while the board was completely restructured in June at the behest of creditors.
