Protecting your assets
Learn how we protect your money and investments
Your assets are kept separate from our own
Even if we or our custody partners were to fail, your investments remain protected and will be accessible to you. This segregation of assets ensures that your investments belong solely to you, and neither we nor our partners can access or use them for any purpose.
How we protect the cash in your Invest account
It's important to note that the £20,000 limit applies to the total amount of money you hold at each specific bank, whether it's deposited by Trading Bulls, other providers, or by you directly. For transparency, the percentage of your cash held at each bank is available in the app under the "Interest on Cash" tab.

How we protect cash linked to your Trading Bulls card
While Paynetics facilitates the issuance of the card and e-money account services, they do not hold any of your cash. Instead, your funds remain securely within your Invest account, benefiting from all our protection measures, including asset segregation and regulatory safeguards. This ensures that your money is safe, easily accessible, and covered by the same protections as your Invest account.

What are Qualifying Money Market Funds (QMMFs)?
When your money is held in a QMMF, its value can go down. However, it’s important to point out that this is very unlikely to occur. We carefully select all QMMFs to ensure that they are highly liquid, stable in value and maintain their highly regulated status. For example, BlackRock’s ICS and JPMorgan’s liquidity funds QMMFs have been active for nearly 30 years and have never decreased in value throughout their history. We review the QMMFs prior to investment and monitor them regularly to ensure they are appropriate.
Pension funds, insurance funds, banks, and other major financial institutions hold large amounts of money in QMMFs. As of January 2024, over €1 trillion was held in QMMFs in Europe and over $6 trillion in the USA.
Learn more about the risks of QMMFs and how we manage them.
How your money is protected in QMMFs
- Segregation: The money held in QMMFs is ring-fenced and kept in a pooled account, completely segregated from our assets.
- Accessibility: Even if we were to fail or go bankrupt, your money is protected and accessible to you. It cannot be used by us or anyone else.
- Regulatory oversight: QMMFs are subject to strict regulations to ensure the safety and liquidity of the funds.
