In the event that you cannot provide us with the answers we may not be in a position to act on your instructions and we reserve the right to request additional information in order to verify your identity.

5. The services

In order for us to provide you with the Services the following steps must be followed

  1. Risk Assessment

    You will be required to answer a risk profile questionnaire. We use this to assess your risk profile and consequently to assess investment products suitable for you. You must keep Moneycube updated on any changes to your personal circumstances and attitude to risk.

  2. Personal Requirements

    You will be required to provide us with information setting out your personal requirements and goals when it comes to investing.

Investment product advice

  1. Having regard to the information provided by you above, we will provide you with information regarding investment products we consider suitable for you in a document called a Suitability Statement.
  2. We have a duty to take reasonable care when determining the suitability of an investment product and in advising you based on information that has been disclosed to us by you. We will consider the suitability of the investments recommended by us based on the information you provide to us by

    you. Therefore it is extremely important that the information provided is accurate and up to date. We may contact you periodically to ascertain any changes in your circumstances.

  3. Sustainability factors: the consideration of sustainability risks can impact on the returns of financial products. When providing advice, we consider the potential adverse impact of investment decisions on sustainability. As part of our research and assessment of products, we will examine product providers’ literature to compare financial products and to make informed investment decisions about ethical, social and governance attributes of investment products.

Investments

  1. If you wish to proceed we will arrange for you to invest with the relevant product provider. There is no obligation on you to make any investment arising from the Suitability Statement provided by us.
  2. These terms and conditions cover the Services provided by us only. All investment products will be governed by their own individual terms and conditions.
  3. We do not handle your money. Any money being invested by you, and any fees due to us, will be paid directly by you to the third party investment provider.

Orders

  1. When instructed to do so by you, we will place your order for investment with the relevant third party provider (‘Order’).
  2. Orders, once received by us will normally be submitted on your behalf within one working day to a third party administrator for further processing. The third party administrator will in turn submit your order to the individual fund administrators, who will apply their own specific cut-off times.
  3. You understand that the date your order will be executed is not guaranteed, due to the various cut-offs being applied by relevant third parties, as well as the time to transfer the money from your bank. Your Order will not be executed until both the funds and the corresponding order are received and processed by the relevant fund administrator.
  4. The price point that will apply to your order will be the price that applies at the point of execution and not the point at which you placed the Order with us. You acknowledge that this may be higher or lower than the price point which applied at the point of the Order.
  5. We will use all reasonable endeavours to submit your Order expeditiously once received by us. We are not liable to you for any non-execution of an Order, or for any delay in executing or processing an Order once your Order has been submitted by us to the relevant third party administrator.
  6. We have an absolute discretion to refuse to process an order placed with us. In particular, if you place an Order which is not consistent with the Suitability Statement prepared by Moneycube, we do not have to process your Order.
  7. A receipt will normally be sent or made available to you when you transmit an order. If any details are wrong, or if you receive notice of an order you do not recognise, you must contact us immediately. We may issue an updated receipt where we become aware that the original was materially incorrect.

Tax

  1. Moneycube may provide indicative calculations on your potential tax liability upon exit of any investments made by you. Any such calculations are for information purposes only. They are based on the performance of the investment only and do not take into account your wider tax situation. As such, this does not constitute personal tax advice and should not be relied upon as such.
  2. You are solely responsible for any tax liabilities that arise from your investments. You acknowledge that you are responsible for your own tax affairs and making your own tax returns.

Access to investment information

  1. Your online account allows you to access the details of your investments.
  2. We will use all reasonable endeavours to provide you with continuous access to the website, but we cannot guarantee it as we have no direct control over the internet.

  4. Some information on the site is provided by a third party and we are not liable for any inaccuracy, errors or omissions in the information they provide us except where such inaccuracy, error or omission is caused by our own wilful default or negligence.
