Our partners stop safeguarding your funds when the money has been paid out of your account to your beneficiary’s account.

Regulated FX Contracts and Client Money 

Bound will treat money received from you, in connection with a Regulated FX Contracts only, as 'client money' and will protect such money in accordance with the FCA client money rules. We will segregate such money, where received by us from our own money by placing it in a separate bank account with a reputable bank.The bank account will be opened in Bound's name but for your benefit. This is called a 'client money account'

For the avoidance of doubt, any money which Bound receives from or holds for you, will not be 'client money' and will not benefit from the client money protections when it becomes otherwise due and payable to Bound, e.g. in relation to a FX Forward, any Required Funding Amount (e.g. where funds are reserved for settlement).
