Asset Safeguarding
Clear ownership and segregation
Client assets are held under segregated arrangements with documented ownership, separate from our own holdings.
Background
Client assets are held under segregated arrangements with documented ownership, separate from our own holdings. The objective is straightforward: professional counterparties should be able to identify clearly which assets belong to them at any point in time.
- ·Clear distinction between client assets and firm assets
- ·Documented ownership records for internal review
- ·Standalone custody structure rather than pooled accounts
- ·Arrangements prepared to support external audit requirements
- ·Consistency between contractual terms and operational practice
How we approach safeguarding
Custody arrangements are organised so that ownership and segregation are reflected in both the contractual documentation and day-to-day operations.
Segregated Structures
Client positions are held under standalone arrangements, separate from firm holdings.
Documented Ownership
Ownership records are maintained and made available for internal review.
Aligned Operations
Operational processes are structured to match the contractual custody model.
Review Support
Materials are prepared to support internal audit and compliance review.
What this focus delivers
Safeguarding arrangements are designed to support professional oversight throughout the custody relationship.
