Overview
Gambling Connection: RICHARD WILLIAMS LTD appears in the Saferwager database because it's linked to a UKGC-licensed gambling operator. The company itself isn't classified as a gambling business under its SIC code, but the corporate connection places it within the scope of gambling industry oversight.
RICHARD WILLIAMS LTD was incorporated on 3 March 1995 and operated for three decades before being dissolved. Despite its long incorporation history, the company's current status is dissolved, meaning it no longer exists as a legal entity and can't enter contracts, hold assets, or take on liabilities. That status alone is the single biggest factor behind its D grade on Saferwager's scoring system.
The company was registered in Barnet under a real estate SIC code rather than a gambling classification, which makes its connection to the gambling industry indirect. Accounts filings had already lapsed by roughly 19 months before dissolution, and confirmation statements were around 23 months overdue, pointing to a company that had effectively stopped operating well before the formal dissolution date.
Its corporate score of 58 out of 100 reflects the weight of the dissolved status against otherwise modest positives: a long incorporation period and a clear ownership structure. Caution is warranted for anyone encountering this company name in a gambling context, given that the legal entity no longer exists.
Governance
The company has a small officer structure with directors recorded as residing in Spain rather than the UK, meaning no UK-resident directors are on record. Ownership sits with a single individual holding between 75% and 100% of shares, giving full control to one person. The absence of UK-resident directors is a governance gap that contributed to the lower director score.
