Notes and record state

Record note
HEI uses insolvency because the terminal event is liquidation with customers unable to access funds and public reporting of banking-provider and trading-viability problems. The later SFO investigation is recorded as a separate event and is not used as the primary death_reason.
Revision state
Records may be incomplete, approximate, contested, or revised as better evidence becomes available.
This record may be incomplete or revised. Dead-side entries prefer archived URLs over original domains. Dates, causes, and classifications may change when stronger evidence becomes available. Contact / corrections
