    Matthew Hill

    The FMA alleged that between February 2013 and July 2020, Mr Hill made dozens of posts on Sharetrader in a thread about New Talisman under two usernames, “bullish” and “Epithermal”. Mr Hill, who is also a director and shareholder of New Talisman, did not, at any point, disclose his involvement in the company, the FMA asserts in the claim. Mr Hill’s conduct was revealed in July 2020 when Sharetrader publicly identified him as the person behind the usernames.
