What is unauthorised deposit-taking?

Renewable Energy

It is taking money from the public while promising to return it with a yield, without being a bank. It is illegal in Colombia.

Example: this is why you will never see a "deposit here and I'll pay you 2% a month". What does exist is buying shares in a company and sharing the project's real fate.
