Holmes was appointed a non-executive director of BBB in April 2001 but resigned shortly thereafter citing problems to do with his residency in the Republic of Ireland. The failure of BBB was partly attributed to problems with their regulator, the [[Financial Services Authority]], arising from training of the BBB salesforce carried out by Holmes. BBB was publicly censured by the FSA over the misselling of whole of life policies and regular savings plans between 2001 and 2004.<ref>[http://www.moneymarketing.co.uk/mortgages/advisers-urged-to-be-on-alert-over-property-plan/1018573.article "Advisers urged to be on alert over property plan" by Paul Thomas] in Money Marketing, 17 September 2010. Retrieved 23 November 2011.</ref> Holmes roundly denied that his training was the cause of misselling problems at BBB, citing compliance problems instead.<ref name=mm/> |
