Over the next few days the segregated accounts for our GBP clients will be transferred over to a new FCA regulated banking entity. Your deposits remain protected under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS). The change will be 100% automatic and will not require any action on your part.

Nevertheless, due to the fact that the bank account details used up until now for GBP deposits have been changed, if you wish to make a deposit via bank transfer, make sure to initiate the deposit from your Wallet in order to receive the new bank account details per email. This should be the way you always initiate a deposit as opposed to copying a previous deposit’s data.
