The Financial Conduct Authority sets out the rules by which regulated firms that hold client assets and client money must operate to ensure its protection. The assets are securely held by our custodian giving you complete reassurance. In common with most other UK financial institutions we use a nominee company to completely ring-fence assets and they remain the property of the client at all times. Assets are subject to regular checking and reconciliation.
Cash deposits are also ring-fenced and are subject to and protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).
The following link provides a full overview of the investor protection we have in place, through R C Brown Investment Management PLC, who act as our custodian and administer client money on our behalf.
