Benefits

Multi-asset

Our diverse network of sub-custodians allows you to invest in - and custody - a wide range of asset classes and products, including: fixed income, ETFs, developed and emerging market equities, FX, mutual funds, hedge funds, options, equities, futures, private placement holdings and CFDs.

Multi-currency

Making the most of every opportunity often means investing on a global stage. Our custody accounts enable you to hold assets and transact in all major developed and emerging market currencies.

Multi-market

We offer custody in more than 120 markets, including all major developed and emerging market jurisdictions. Our custody clients enjoy efficient multi-asset and multi-currency execution performed by our independent trading desk.

Our sub-custodians

Unlike many dedicated investment firms, we are licensed by the FCA to offer UK-based custody ourselves and MFSA to offer custody out of Malta. To do so we work work with a network of carefully selected sub-custodians that safeguard your assets in multi-asset and multi-currency investment accounts operating in more than 120 jurisdictions.

The right partners make a strong network

We have carefully selected a group of sub-custodians and cash-handling agents who we work with closely.

All of our sub-custodians are evaluated according to their capabilities, reporting systems, effeciency and the flexibility of their technical support and operations, and their credit rating.

Your assets safeguarded

Your securities and cash are held on your behalf and ring-fenced from Dolfin’s own accounts so you are entirely protected from Dolfin credit risk. In the very unlikely event of Dolfin being declared insolvent, our sub-custodians cannot withhold any money from our client accounts. Unlike a bank, we do not hold client assets on our balance sheet.
