All client money and investments are held with Interactive Brokers (UK) Ltd under FCA CASS rules. Mexem UK does not hold client money or assets. Assets are held in trust, segregated from IBKR’s corporate funds, and deposited with Tier-1 banks.  IBKR performs daily reconciliations and distributes funds across institutions to reduce exposure.

If IBKR fails, eligible clients may claim up to £85,000 under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).

All General Investment, ISA and JISA accounts benefit from the same client asset protection standards under UK regulation.

• Orders are transmitted to Interactive Brokers LLC (IBLLC) for execution and clearing under a formal Execution and Clearing Agreement (Form 3207).
