Client Money

Assure Hedge, who is one of our premier solutions provider must comply with the Client Assets Sourcebook (CASS) of the FCA Handbook, which sets out the rules for holding and controlling client money. This includes the treatment, segregation, safeguarding, and strict record keeping of client money and assets.

Client Funds are held with Global Tier 1 banking partners, in segregated client accounts, thus ensuring your funds are held completely separate from ours and our partners own funds.

How your money is protected

We do not hold any client funds. All eligible client funds are deposited with Assure Hedge and is held by them on trust for you and is completely segregated from both ours and their own corporate funds. Should Assure Hedge become insolvent, your funds may not be used to offset any sums owed to Assure Hedge’s creditors.

When this does not apply

The only clients whose money and assets are not treated in this way are professional clients, or eligible counterparties who have signed a Title Transfer Collateral Agreement explaining how their money and assets are held differently. This agreement is not available to retails clients.

Client Protection

Ebury’s client funds are held in segregated accounts, entirely separate from their own operating accounts, so client funds are safeguarded.
