However, your funds are held in one or more segregated accounts with regulated third-party credit institutions, in accordance with the safeguarding requirements of the Electronic Money Regulations 2011. While these measures aim to protect your funds, there is a small risk that, in the unlikely event of the insolvency of the credit institution holding your safeguarded funds, your money may be at risk.
