We comply to ASIC regulations by holding our retail client funds in segregated bank accounts. Rakuten Securities Australia meets and exceeds the requirements of ASIC Regulations and clearly distinguishes retail client money from its own by holding retail client funds in trust or segregated client bank accounts. Treating retail client money in this way ensures that in the event of Rakuten Securities Australia becoming insolvent, funds held in these accounts will be returned to clients. Rakuten Securities performs daily client money reconciliations in accordance with regulation requirements. This process ensures that funds held in trust or segregated bank accounts accurately reflect retail client assets.
