Matfield, a village in the Weald of Kent, is the residential location of two key figures in the UK arm of the Corinth Group of Switzerland network.

The Matfield Residents

Alec Louw Theunissen, director of Three Tuns Investment Holdings Ltd, resides at Matfield, Kent, Kent. Michael James Padley, who controls VMSIH Ltd — the ultimate Person of Significant Control (PSC) of Three Tuns Investment Holdings — also uses a Matfield address [Companies House].

The PSC Chain

Companies House filings reveal a layered control structure: Three Tuns Investment Holdings Ltd is controlled by RJ-BAT Consulting Ltd (Theunissen's PSC vehicle), which is in turn controlled by VMSIH Ltd (Padley's vehicle). This chain means Padley is the ultimate beneficial owner of the Three Tuns group, with Theunissen as the operational director. Both reside in the small village of Matfield, raising questions about the nature of their relationship [Companies House PSC filings].

Co-location Significance

The co-location of the operational director and the ultimate beneficial owner in the same small village is noted by investigators. Matfield has a population of approximately 600. The proximity suggests a closer working relationship than the formal corporate structure — where control flows through two intermediate companies — might suggest to a casual observer.

Key Facts

  • Theunissen and Padley both in Matfield (pop. ~600)
  • PSC chain: RJ-BAT → VMSIH → Three Tuns
  • Padley is ultimate beneficial owner
