    Court found prosecution proved beyond reasonable doubt that sums paid to defendant were "deposits" under s136 and were accepted without requisite licence contrary to s137 FSA 2013; defendant's sworn testimony and denial failed to raise reasonable doubt; conviction is safe and a custodial sentence of four years imprisonment is appropriate and upheld.
