Asset Ownership & Segregation

We never take ownership of your assets. Your assets are held by us on your behalf, or with a professional custodial partner. In the unlikely event of insolvency, you retain ownership of your assets.

This approach not only separates client assets from our company's operational funds but also minimises the risk of unauthorised access.
