Qadbak Investments

Qadbak Investments Ltd was a British Virgin Islands registered company which served as the vehicle for the short-lived purchase of English football club Notts County for £1, and for a failed attempt to purchase Formula One team BMW Sauber.

The company first came to public prominence in July 2009 upon their purchase of Notts County via its subsidiary Munto Finance. They were advised in the deal by con-man Russell King. In September 2009, it was announced that they had agreed to purchase the BMW Sauber Formula One team, hastening its return to the F1 fold, however this agreement was never concluded.

Qadbak Investments was purported by numerous sources, including official statements from both Notts County and BMW, to represent the collective interests of "certain Middle Eastern and European-based families". In November 2009, it was discovered that Qadbak Investments had no such investors.
