Security of Funds
To further safeguard your funds and to meet with regulatory requirements whether you are buying or selling currency with us, your funds are held in the segregated client accounts at Barclays. Under the FSA’s client money rules, firms are required to keep client money separate from the firm's money in segregated accounts with trust status. This helps to safeguard and ring-fence all monies in the event of the firm's insolvency.
You can take further reassurance from our experience and track record in this field. We are a private company with a strong balance sheet and no debt - meaning you can rest easy knowing we are taking excellent care of your funds.
