What we offer

CASS Accounts

Built for CASS-regulated firms, these accounts help you meet requirements to keep client money separate from operational funds under FCA CASS 7 rules and MiFID. They’re suitable for investment firms, brokers, asset managers and custody providers, crowd funding platforms and P2P lenders, firms offering cash or innovative finance ISAs, and insurance intermediaries.

With a CASS Account, client funds are ring-fenced from your business funds to support ongoing compliance. We can also provide an acknowledgement letter for your CASS 7 requirements,

giving you a clear way to evidence the account structure. This framework helps protect clients by keeping their money secure if your business were ever to become insolvent.
