Appendix 2: Particular Terms Provided by Third Party Providers

When you open your Plum Account with Plum via the Plum App, you will also have a Plum Wallet opened on terms and conditions you accept with the Payment Provider. This Appendix 2 sets out some of the terms on which the Plum Wallet is opened. You should note that Plum does not provide you with the Plum Wallet and you will have a direct relationship with the Payment Provider. Your Plum Wallet is issued by Modulr FS Limited, which is an FCA authorised electronic money issuer. Modulr FS Limited's.

YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH MODULR FINANCE LIMITED

Your relationship with Modulr Finance Limited is direct and it is subject to the terms and conditions in the Modulr Introduced Clients Terms of Business and Modulr Account Terms and Conditions (together the "Modulr Terms").

When you open your Plum Wallet with Modulr FS Limited, you will also become a joint account holder in a settlement account issued by Modulr FS Limited for Plum Account holders - we call this the ‘Settlement Account’.

When you place an order through the plum platform for certain investments, we will instruct a payment from your Plum Wallet. You acknowledge and agree that we are authorised to give instructions to the Payment Provider in respect of the settling of transactions in Investments on the Plum App by instructing the transfer of funds from your Plum Wallet.

Plum settles to its brokers on a daily basis, so where an order for relevant investments is placed during the day, funds will move from your individual account to the settlement account. Your money will stay in the settlement account until the end of the day when it will be sent to the broker to settle the transaction made through the Plum app.

You acknowledge and agree that you will be a joint legal owner of the Settlement Account with all Plum Account holders who have Plum Wallets with Modulr FS Limited, who will hold legal ownership of the Settlement Account equally. You will hold a beneficial ownership interest in the money in the Settlement Account as a tenant in common in the same proportion as any money you have paid into the Settlement Account on that day, and will hold the remaining funds in the Settlement Account on trust for other Plum Account holders.

What this means is that during the day, money that you send for orders will sit in a joint account with money from other Plum Account holders who have made trades on that day. You will have a beneficial ownership interest in your money that has been paid into the Settlement Account and Modulr FS Limited will hold this money as your money in accordance with its terms. You acknowledge and agree that you won't have any rights to funds in the Settlement Account beyond the amount you have paid on that day.

You acknowledge and agree that to the maximum extent possible, you and the other Plum Account holders who are legal owners of the Settlement Account will have no obligations to each other and owe no duties in relation to the Settlement Account. This means that whilst you will own any money that is moved to the account you will not be able to trigger the movements of funds in or out of the account, unless you submit a buy or sell order on the Plum app. We will operate the Settlement Account for all Plum Account holders in accordance with the authority that you give us in this Appendix X, but we don't have any legal or beneficial rights to or interests in the funds in the Settlement Account.

OPERATING THE SETTLEMENT ACCOUNT

As set out above, when we instruct a payment from your Plum Wallet, a payment will be made to the Settlement Account. You delegate exclusive responsibility for the operation of the Settlement Account to Plum, as your Authorised User, in order to make any payments required to settle transactions made on the Plum app.

We will operate the Settlement Account on your behalf and on behalf of the other Plum Account holders and will act honestly and in good faith when operating the Settlement Account. When operating the Settlement Account, we will carry out our duties with all due skill, care and attention.

The Settlement Account will also be used to receive payments you are owed from the executing brokers used too. Payments you receive will be paid into the Settlement Account before being paid into your individual Plum Wallet. Funds held in the Settlement Account in these circumstances will be treated in the same way as funds used for Orders, as set out above.

If you have any questions about or issues with the Modulr FS Limited services then you should contact us in the first instance. We can be contacted via the in app chat function.

HOW TO COMPLAIN ABOUT SERVICES PROVIDED BY MODULR FS LIMITED AND MODULR FINANCE (“MODULR”)

Although Modulr FS Limited is responsible for issuing the e-money accounts related to the Plum Wallet, you should send your complaints to us in the first instance. Complaints about the Modulr service can be made via the in app chat function. We will acknowledge your complaint promptly and arrange for the matter to be investigated in accordance with the Modulr’s Terms. Your complaint may be escalated to Modulr.

Plum Cash ISA Terms and Conditions

Introduction

This agreement (the “Cash ISA Terms”) is between you, the client (Client, you, your) and Saveable Limited, a company registered in England and Wales under company number 09777255 and registered at Floor 2, 2-7 Clerkenwell Green, EC1R 0DE, London (“Plum”, “we”, “us”, “our”). These Cash ISA Terms relate to the provision of certain services by Plum to you in relation to your Plum Cash ISA (“Cash ISA” or “Plum Cash ISA”) and the Cash ISA Services

These Cash ISA Terms act as an addendum to the Plum General Terms and Conditions that are in place between you and us. You are entering into this agreement because you wish to receive the Cash ISA Services and any rights or obligations which you may have or be subject to under these Cash ISA Terms are in addition to the rights and obligations arising under the Plum General Terms and Conditions to which you are a party. The Plum General Terms and Conditions will continue to apply to you when accessing and using the Cash ISA Services. To the extent that any conflicts arise between the provisions of these Cash ISA Terms and the Plum General Terms and Conditions in relation to the Cash ISA Services, these Cash ISA Terms will prevail.

Throughout this agreement, we use certain capitalised terms. A full list of these capitalised terms can be found in the Glossary to these Cash ISA Terms. For any capitalised term not defined in the Glossary of these Cash ISA Terms, the definition is the one given in the Plum General Terms & Conditions.

These Cash ISA Terms contain important information that you need to read carefully. If you have any questions or doubts about any of the content in these Cash ISA Terms, you should seek appropriate professional advice before opening your Cash ISA.

There may be circumstances that require us to review these Cash ISA Terms and the charges being made. If a change we are proposing will be material to you, we will provide you with at least 30 calendar days’ prior notice of that change, unless we need to make the change sooner because of legal or regulatory issues in which case we will make the information available within one business day of making the change. If we make a change that is not material to you, we can make such a change immediately. If we make a change that is material to you, you can notify us within 30 calendar days from the date of that change being made that you want to terminate your agreement with us and close your Plum Account.

We will always aim to give you as much notice as practicable, even where regulatory or legal circumstances require us to act quickly. Where the change reduces your rights or increases your costs, we will explain the reason clearly.

When we talk about changes, we mean changes to these terms and conditions. We do not, for example, mean any changes to interest rates or notice periods applicable to the Plum Cash ISA.

The interest rate may go up and down. We will notify you of any change to the interest rate, subject to clause 3.10.

Your Obligations

Notify us immediately and without undue delay in case of suspicion of an account takeover, fraud or lost or stolen device in accordance with the provisions in the Plum General Terms and Conditions.

Unless you have notified us of a lost or stolen device in accordance with the provisions in the Plum General Terms and Conditions, we are entitled to treat any deposits or withdrawals made via the Plum App as legitimate and rely on those deposits or withdrawals, and you shall remain solely liable for any deposits or withdrawals that arise as a result.

Failure to comply with your obligations may result in a loss for which Plum will not be liable and/or out of Plum’s control (e.g. in case of an unauthorised withdrawal a consequential loss of Bonus will be borne).

In the event that you are unsure whether Cash ISA is suitable for you, and, within your own risk appetite, seek independent advice.

About us

Plum and Plum Money is a trading name of Saveable Limited, an entity authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority “FCA” with firm reference number 739214. The FCA’s registered address is 12 Endeavour Square, London, E20 1JN. We can be contacted at help@withplum.com or via the Plum App.

1.1. The Plum General Terms and Conditions relating to your Plum account opening shall apply throughout your relationship with Plum and, additionally, by opening a Cash ISA, the present Cash ISA Terms will also apply.

1.2. In order to receive the Cash ISA Services you must ensure that you have the Plum App and that you have opened a Cash ISA with us. Further information relating to how to open accounts with us is provided in the Plum General Terms and Conditions and via our Website. When you open a Cash ISA, you will be deemed to confirm that the representations and warranties contained in the Plum General Terms and Conditions are true and accurate, and each time you deposit or withdraw cash you will be deemed to confirm that such representations and warranties remain true and accurate.

1.3. You acknowledge and understand that holding a Plum Account and/or already using other services from Plum does not guarantee that you will be able to open a Plum Cash ISA with us and receive the Cash ISA Services.

1.4. Unless you have notified us of a lost or stolen device in accordance with the provisions in the Plum General Terms and Conditions, we are entitled to treat any deposits or withdrawals made via the Plum App as legitimate and rely on those deposits or withdrawals and you shall remain solely liable for any deposits or withdrawals that arise as a result.

2. The Plum Cash ISA Terms

2.1. Plum will provide the Cash ISA Services subject at all times to the provisions of these Cash ISA Terms. These Cash ISA Terms will govern all Transactions entered into by you under the Cash ISA Services.

2.2. It is a condition of opening a Cash ISA that you agree to these Cash ISA Terms and that you agree to comply with your obligations under these Cash ISA Terms.

2.3. When opening your Cash ISA, we may utilise the services of third-party service providers to verify your identity and you agree that we may share your personal data with such providers for this specific purpose.

2.4. Access to the Cash ISA Services is provided to you at Plum’s sole discretion. You acknowledge and agree that Plum may or may not, in its sole discretion, provide you with the Cash ISA Services. Plum may add, modify or discontinue any feature or functionality within the Cash ISA Services. Where any such change is material to you, we will provide you with reasonable prior notice in accordance with the details about changes to these terms, set out in the Introduction.

2.5. Plum will exercise all due skill, care and diligence in the performance of the Cash ISA Services. Nothing in these terms limits or excludes any duty owed to you under applicable law or FCA rules, including the FCA's Consumer Duty.

2.6. You must be a UK tax resident, and pursuant to our General Terms and Conditions, over the age of 18 to subscribe to our Cash ISA. If you hold a Cash ISA and you cease to be a UK tax resident, you must inform us immediately.

2.7. You acknowledge and agree that you will be the sole beneficial owner of the Cash ISA. You may only subscribe to an ISA from your own funds, failure to do so may result in the rejection of your subscription, and any such funds will be returned to you or to the original source of the funds.

2.8. You may also transfer other providers’ Cash ISAs you may have to this Cash ISA.

2.9. The Cash ISA Services will be provided on a non-advised basis, meaning that we will not provide you with any advice as to the merits of the Plum Cash ISA product, transactions or whether it is suitable for you.. We will not provide you with any investment, legal, tax or other form of advice, nor can you request any such advice from us. You are solely responsible for any decisions taken in respect of any and all Transactions that you choose to enter or not enter into.

2.10. We may be required to obtain certain information from you such that we can comply with our obligations under applicable law and regulation and you agree to provide any such information that we may reasonably request in the format within which we request it. You may be denied access to the Cash ISA Services until such time as we can obtain sufficient information from you to satisfy our obligations under applicable law and regulation. This information includes, but is not limited to, any information we need to verify your identity and any information we require for purposes of reporting to meet our regulatory obligations.

2.11. The Cash ISA product and the related tax benefits are covered by the ISA Regulations, and are subject to all of the rights and restrictions in those regulations. If any difference arises between these terms and conditions and the ISA Regulations (e.g. due to a change in regulation), the ISA Regulations will take precedence.

Subscriptions and Withdrawals

2.12. Adding funds to your Cash ISA is done using funds held in your Plum Wallet, or direct from your bank account. Please consult the Plum App for more information.

2.13. You can open a Cash ISA with us, and with other providers, within the same tax year, without losing your allowance as long as you do not exceed your total annual allowance in any given tax year. This flexibility to subscribe to multiple Cash ISAs in the same tax year has applied from the 2024/25 tax year onwards.

2.14. You are responsible for ensuring that subscriptions to your ISA are within allowable limits set out in the ISA Regulations. If instructed by HMRC we will return any oversubscription without your further authority.

2.15. Withdrawals from the Cash ISA are received into your Plum Wallet.

2.16. The Plum Cash ISA is a Flexible ISA. This means that if you withdraw funds from your Cash ISA, you can replace them within the same tax year without the replacement funds counting towards your annual ISA allowance. When you add money to your account, it will first be treated as a replacement of any previous withdrawals made in that same tax year. Once all withdrawals have been fully replaced, any further funds added will count as new subscriptions towards your annual ISA allowance.

2.17. Additional ISA subscriptions (i.e. subscriptions to this ISA in excess of the annual ISA subscription limit as a result of the death of a spouse or partner) are not supported by this product.

Transfer Outs

2.18. You can request us to transfer all of your Current Tax year’s ISA, and all of your previous tax years’ ISAs, held with us to another ISA plan manager(s).

2.19. You can make a request to transfer out your ISA with Plum through Plum’s customer support, help@withplum.com. If you close or transfer your Plum Cash ISA during a bonus period (where applicable), you will lose the bonus rate and forfeit any accrued, unpaid interest.

2.20. If you withdraw funds that you deposited in the current tax year (since the most recent 6 April), those withdrawals reduce your total current year ISA subscriptions. The withdrawn amount is treated as if it was never subscribed, and that portion of your annual ISA allowance becomes available again. If you then transfer your Cash ISA to another provider, you can re-subscribe those funds to any ISA provider before the end of the current tax year, you are not required to return them to Plum.

Example: You subscribed £10,000 in the current tax year, then withdrew £3,000. Your current year subscriptions reduce to £7,000, leaving £13,000 of your annual allowance available to use with any provider.

2.21. If you withdraw funds that were subscribed in a previous tax year, the flexible replacement right is tied specifically to your Plum Cash ISA. If you transfer your Cash ISA in full to another provider before replacing those funds, you will permanently lose the ability to re-subscribe them within an ISA. The flexible replacement allowance for prior-year funds does not transfer to the new provider.

2.22. You will need to contact your new ISA plan manager to transfer out and make arrangements in accordance with their requirements. Your new ISA plan manager will need to contact us to arrange for the transfer.

Transfer Ins

2.23. You can transfer in another Cash ISA to Plum at any time. We aim to complete transfers of Cash ISAs within 15 working days, or within 30 calendar days if you’re transferring from another type of ISA. Only full transfers-in for the current tax year, and previous years, are accepted. Bonus offerings related to transfer-ins are outlined in the Summary Box provided when you opened your account.

ISA Termination

2.24. These Terms will remain in force until either you or us seek their cancellation in accordance with this clause.

2.25. Termination in the General Terms and Conditions is applicable here, wherever relevant.

2.26. Subject to these Terms, you can cancel your use of the Products and Services at any time by giving notice to us via email or via the Plum App.

2.27. Subject to the Premium Services Terms, we can immediately cancel our provision, without prior notice, of any of the Products and Services if:

i. your use of the Plum Account has been inactive for an extended period of time; ii. you commit a material breach of these Terms;

iii. you commit a breach of the Terms of Website Use;

iv. a Default Event occurs in relation to you.

Closing your Plum Cash ISA

2.28. Subject to paragraph 2.27 below, you may end this agreement and close your Plum Cash ISA at any time.

2.29. You agree that you will continue to be responsible for all obligations related to your Cash ISA even after it is closed.

2.30. We may end this agreement and close your Cash ISA or any service associated with it by giving you reasonable prior notice, unless we are required by law or other event to act sooner. You may be offered to transfer to an alternative ISA manager of your choice or on the closure date, all remaining cash you hold through Plum will be deposited into your Plum Wallet, unless we are required by law to freeze your Plum Account.

2.31. We may suspend, freeze, or close your Plum Cash ISA without notice in certain circumstances. We will lift the suspension and/or restriction as soon as practicable after the reasons for the suspension and/or restriction have ceased to exist.

2.32. We may at any time suspend or close your Cash ISA and/or end this agreement without notice if:

i) notifying you would be unlawful or compromise our reasonable security measures; ii) you breach any provision of this agreement or documents referred to in this agreement;

iii) we are requested or directed to do so by any competent court of law, government authority, public agency, law enforcement agency or the FCA;

iv) we have reason to believe you are in breach of any applicable law or regulation; or v) we have reason to believe you are involved in any fraudulent activity, money laundering, terrorism financing or other criminal or illegal activity;

vi) allowing you to contribute or transfer in would breach legislation or HMRC and/or FCA rules; or

vii) the details you provided, including the declarations you accepted in opening your Plum Account or Cash ISA are incorrect and, had your application been correct, we would not have accepted your application for a Cash ISA.

2.33. We may without prior notice or delay terminate this Cash ISA agreement immediately, if we are exposed to action or censure from any law enforcement actions by governments or regulatory bodies by providing you with the Cash ISA or Cash ISA Services

2.34. If you are not happy with your choice of account within 14 days of making your first deposit, you can close your account and your ISA allowance for that particular tax year remains unaffected. If you would like to take advantage of this 14 day rule, you must contact Plum Customer Service. When you close your account, we will make sure our reports to HM Revenue & Customs reflect the correct position. If you do cancel your account, the full amount of your investment, excluding any interest earned, will be returned to you.

2.35. If you close your Flexible ISA, any unused replacement allowance (amounts previously withdrawn but not yet re-subscribed in the current tax year) will no longer be available. We recommend making any replacement subscriptions before closing your account. Closure does not affect your annual ISA subscription allowance for the current tax year.

Deceased Cash ISA holder

2.36. In the event of your death the tax advantages of your ISA will continue but no new subscription or transfers-in are allowed. Your account will be designated a continuing account of a deceased investor and it will remain open until the earlier of:

(i) the completion of the administration of your estate;

(ii) the closure of the account by your executors;

(iii) the third anniversary of your death.

2.37. Additional Permitted Subscriptions (APS): If you are married or in a civil partnership at the time of your death, your surviving spouse or civil partner may be entitled to an APS allowance based on the value of your Cash ISA. Please note that as stated in section 2.17, we do not support APS payments into our ISA products. However, your spouse or civil partner (or their chosen ISA provider) can contact our Customer Service team, and we will calculate the allowance and facilitate the transfer of this allowance to another provider so they can utilise it.

3. Cash ISA Product Features

3.1. We hold your money as client money in a variety of bank accounts with notice or fixed terms of up to 95 days with a group of approved third party banks. Your money may not be immediately available for withdrawal in exceptional circumstances.

3.2. Your money will be pooled with those belonging to other customers in accordance with the FCA Client Money Rules in Client Bank Accounts and kept separate from Plum’s own corporate money. If you ever had a claim, such a claim would be for your proportionate share of the pooled money.

3.3. In all instances where we use third party banks, it is important to note that we are not responsible for any acts, omissions or default of such a bank. Our duty to keep your money safe relates to taking care of our choice and monitoring of such a bank. We carry out extensive checks on these banks and treat any issues very seriously.

3.4. In using third party banks Plum can at its sole discretion, and without further notice to you, decide which third party bank to use for the purpose of depositing customers money originating from the Cash ISA product.

3.5. You will receive the rate of interest offered by Plum as shown in the Plum App at the time. Plum will retain the difference (if any) between the interest or fees received from the underlying third party banks and the amounts paid on your product.

3.6. Interest is accrued daily on the cleared balance held and paid monthly. The bonus interest rate we offer is calculated daily and will be paid to your account along with the interest earned for your 12th month and at that point, will be available for withdrawal.

3.7. The eligibility criteria may change from time to time at our sole discretion. We will inform you at least 14 days in advance if the eligibility criteria change.

3.8. From time to time Plum may offer additional bonus interest rates for certain customers. Any additional bonus interest will be treated as interest and paid in accordance with the specific terms supplied by Plum.

3.9. You can only withdraw interest that has been paid into your account. If you wish to withdraw mid-month, you will forego any interest earned that month.

3.10. The interest rate that we receive is subject to immediate change at the discretion of the third party banking provider, over which we have no control. This will impact the interest rate that we provide. If we lower the interest rate that you receive, we will inform you at the earliest opportunity. If we increase the interest rate then we will apply changes immediately and will update the Plum App with this information.

3.11. Interest will not be earned on any transfer until the transfer itself is fully completed - this means we have received both the funds and the transfer confirmation from the former provider.

3.12. There may, on occasion, be additional money paid to your Cash ISA, including any bonus offering. The structure of these offerings will be clearly explained to you when they are introduced, and information on them will be available in the most recent Summary Box of the Cash ISA. More details regarding bonus offerings are available in the Summary Box when you opened your account.

4. Fees and Taxes

4.1. We reserve the right to deduct any monies from your Plum Cash ISA or your Plum Wallet to satisfy your obligation to pay us any amount under these Cash ISA Terms. All fees you may have to pay to us are listed on the Plum Website, Fees.

4.2. Plum may, at any time and without prior notice to you, set off any liability of yours to us under these Cash ISA Terms against any liability of ours to you under these Cash ISA Terms, whether either liability is present or future, liquidated or unliquidated. If the liabilities to be set off are expressed in different currencies, we may convert either liability at a market rate of exchange for the purpose of set off.

5. Complaints

5.1. Should you have any complaint(s) in relation to the Products and Services, please notify us in accordance with this clause. Your complaint will be acknowledged within one (1) Business Day after receipt and arrange for the matter to be investigated in accordance with the applicable laws and rules of the FCA.

5.2. In the first instance please contact Plum at help@withplum.com. If your complaint relates to a service provided by Plum and not by a Third Party Provider of Plum, we will immediately carry out an investigation of your complaint in line with our complaints policy and will provide a written response, communicating the outcome of the investigation with you.

5.3. If your complaint relates to a service provided by any of our Third Party Providers, we will notify them of your complaint, they will investigate the complaint and we will then respond to you with a final response no later than by the end of eight weeks after receipt of the complaint.

6. Protections

6.1. Plum Money is authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to hold client money but we’re not a bank. This means that in different scenarios your money is protected in different ways. We segregate client money from our own money in accordance with the FCA Client Money rules.

6.2. Plum deposits your money with third party banks. These banks are covered by the FSCS and, in the event one of them fails, you would be eligible to claim up to £120,000 per person per bank for any shortfall in money. Plum would make the claim to the FSCS on your behalf in relation to savings products and the claim may take up to three months to settle. Please note the £120,000 limit applies in aggregate to the total amount of money held by you at any one bank, whether it is deposited by Plum, by other providers, or by you directly with the bank.

6.3. For the purpose of the FCA Rules, which require us to categorise our customers, we will categorise you as a ‘retail client’ in accordance with the FCA’s client categorisation criteria. This means that you are entitled to the protections provided for Retail Clients under the FCA Rules and relevant legislation.

Interest Pockets Terms

These Interest Pockets Terms

These Interest Pockets Terms impose additional obligations that will apply to you where you receive one or more Interest Pockets (as defined below).
By accepting these terms and conditions, you allow us to act as your trustee and send your money to the Interest Account provider, in accordance with (a) these Interest Pockets Terms; (b) our General Terms & Conditions; and (c) any other terms or deeds that apply to you including the terms set by the Interest Account provider.
Where there is any conflict or inconsistency between: (a) these Interest Pockets Terms; (b) our General Terms & Conditions; and (c) any other terms or deeds that apply to you, these Interest Pockets Terms shall prevail.
The Interest Pockets
We may, at our discretion, offer the following services to you:
1. A deposit account ("Easy Access Account") service where you can place and withdraw your funds within one working day (the "Easy Access Interest Pockets");
2. A 32-day notice deposit account ("32-day Account") service (the "32-Day Interest Pockets"); and
3. A 95-day notice deposit account ("95-day Account") service (the "95-Day Interest Pockets"), (each a Interest Pocket and together the Interest Pockets).
The Interest Pockets is provided by our Interest Account provider, but offered via the Plum App. The Interest Pockets are provided by the Interest Account provider subject to and in accordance with this Interest Pockets Terms.
You may only receive the Interest Pockets if you are UK domiciled. If you cease to be a UK resident at any point, then you must inform us immediately.
If you are unsure whether the interest you accrue could be subject to tax, you should contact His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC) or seek professional tax advice. Any interest accrued from your Interest Pocket(s) may be subject to these or other taxes.
The maximum value that may be funded across the Interest Pockets is £120,000.
Account Opening and Closing
In order to open or close an Interest Pocket you must follow the instructions and meet the criteria set out on the Plum App. We are required by law to carry out steps prior to the opening of an account. In the majority of cases this will be done almost instantly, but in some cases this may take a short time. We will notify you when your Application to open or close an Interest Pocket has been successful.
When you open an Interest Pocket you may use the Plum App to direct the E-Money Provider to transfer funds from your Plum Wallet into the Interest Pocket.
When you withdraw money from an Interest Pocket (including when you close an Interest Pocket) your funds will be transferred into your Plum Wallet.
Notice
Where you wish to withdraw funds from your Interest Pocket, you are required to give notice to withdraw. You must request this via the instructions available in the Plum App. The applicable Notice Period will correspond to the name of the account and will be outlined in the Terms provided at the time of signing up to the service.
During the Notice Period you will not be able to instruct any action on your Interest pocket until the Notice Period has elapsed, at which time the funds will be allocated to your Plum Wallet in accordance with clause 11.
It may take up to one business day or longer for a withdrawal to be processed following the completion of the Notice Period, subject to the operational processes of the Interest Account provider. This is out of our control.
Cancellation
You have 14 calendar days within which to cancel a Interest Pockets, beginning on the date on which we notify you that the relevant Interest Pocket(s) is opened. After this time, the full notice must be served on any funds deposited in accordance with clause 12 of these Interest Pocket Terms.
Interest
Interest or profit is paid by the Interest Account provider, and is only accrued during the term of the Interest Pocket. For new Interest Pockets, interest or profit is accrued from the time the Interest Account provider receives your funds, not during the transfer process. Similarly, once funds are matured or Interest Pockets have been closed they stop being interest or profit bearing. During the transfer of funds to and from your Plum Wallet, no interest or profit is accrued. We do not have access to the funds in your Interest Pocket at any time. We do not profit from the time it takes for your funds to transfer to or from the Interest Account provider to your Plum Wallet.
The Interest is calculated daily on the cleared balance in the account using the interest rate applicable on that day and is paid into the Interest Pocket monthly.
The interest rate is a managed rate and will be agreed prior to account opening. The interest rate is subject to change at the discretion of the Interest Account provider, over which we have no control. Should a change occur, you will be informed at the earliest opportunity in line with the information provided in the summary box of the product.
Pooled Trust Account
Each Interest Pocket is a ledger that records your beneficial interest in a Pooled Trust Account. A Pooled Trust Account is an account held at the Interest Account provider in our name that contains money beneficially owned by you and a number of our other customers. We will hold each Pooled Trust Account for you and our other customers in proportion to your interests as recorded in the ledger. We do not exercise any discretion in relation to your Interest Pocket or the Pooled Trust Account.
Compensation
The Interest Account provider is covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme ("FSCS"). This means that the FSCS may pay compensation to you, up to the current FSCS compensation limit (£120,000), if the Interest Account provider is unable to meet its financial obligations.
The current FSCS limit relates to the combined amount in all of your accounts with the Interest Account provider, which may include both your Interest Pockets and any other account that you hold with the Interest Account provider either directly or indirectly, including your share of any joint account held at the Interest Account provider.

Please note only compensation related queries should be directed to the FSCS.

Do not send questions or complaints directly to the Interest Account provider. We may share details of any query or complaint that you send to us with the Interest Account provider if we, in our absolute discretion, consider it necessary or desirable in order to respond to your question or complaint.

Section 3 – Plum’s Conflicts Management Policy

Introduction
1. We are committed to taking measures to recognise, supervise, examine and resolve conflicts of interest. We recognise that it is not possible to eliminate all sources of conflict of interest; however, treating our customers fairly and in accordance with FCA Rules and principles remains our primary objective. This policy encompasses the relationships with customers and third-party contacts.
What is a conflict of interest?
1. A conflict of interest is a situation in which Plum (or any of its personnel) finds itself in a position where its own interests conflict with the duties and obligations owed to its clients or, a situation in which Plum’s duty to one client conflicts with its duty to another.
Identifying conflicts of interest
1. For the purposes of identifying the types of conflict and potential conflicts that arise which may entail a material risk of damage to the interests of a client, we must consider whether Plum or its directors, employees, or contractors ("Plum Personnel") or any other person linked by control to Plum:
2. 1. is likely to make a financial gain, or avoid a financial loss, at the expense of a client;
  2. has an interest in the outcome of a service provided to a client or transaction carried out on behalf of a client, which is distinct from the client’s interest in that outcome;
  3. has an incentive to favour the interest of another client or group of clients over the interests of the client;
  4. carries on the same business as a client, or
  5. receives or will receive from a person other than a client an inducement in relation to a service provided to the client, in the form of remuneration, goods or services.
Conflict Situations
1. We have identified a number of situations which may give rise to a potential conflict of interest. These situations include, but are not limited to, the following:
2. 1. we receive gifts, entertainment or other monetary and non-monetary benefits from our service providers or business partners (for example, the fund managers of the Funds we make available to clients through Plum), which could give rise to a conflict with respect to the duties that we owe to our clients;
  2. Plum Personnel who have outside commitments (e.g. directorships or other outside business interests) may be influenced to act in a manner that conflicts with the interests of Plum or its clients; and
  3. where Plum Personnel invest for their own account in certain investments which are retained as investments for client accounts.
Conflict Management
1. We have developed protocols to manage conflicts of interest set out in this document to enable us to act without bias or damage to your interests. Our employees are provided with training about the protocols and the standards of conduct to which they must adhere. Our management is responsible for ensuring the protocols are adhered to and to deal with any conflict that may arise.
2. We maintain a log of conflicts that arise, and we note on it each conflict was monitored and any solution which was developed and applied to resolve the problem and to prevent the customer's interests from being disadvantaged. The effectiveness of our protocols is assessed by internal audit staff members who execute their duties in a wholly independent capacity.
3. 1. We have in place procedures to prevent unauthorised access to information and to prevent the dissemination of information.
  2. We ensure that all Plum Personnel are subject to appropriate restrictions and monetary limits for any gifts or entertainment received.
  3. We ensure that all Plum Personnel pre-clear and report any personal trading activity which may conflict with the interests of our clients.
  4. We ensure that our personnel’s external commitments do not conflict with the interests of Plum or its clients;
  5. Where our functions could create an internal conflict, we separate the duties appropriately. The operations functions are maintained and conducted separately from the front office functions and an appropriate level of qualification, expertise and supervision is applied.
  6. Staff remuneration is by means of a basic salary which is not linked to the underlying performance of your Account or any underlying investment. A remuneration committee agrees and monitors awards, including for example, any performance related pay, to achieve consistency and equitability and to ensure they do not lead to conditions which may foster conflict.
Conflicts Disclosure
1. If we are not reasonably confident that we are able to manage a particular conflict to adequately protect the interest of a client, the general nature and/or source of conflicts of interest will be clearly disclosed before we undertake any business.
2. We wish to disclose that we may aggregate anonymised data with that of other clients and license or sell it to third parties.
Conflicts Disclosure

Section 4 - Order Handling and Best Interest Policy

Plum’s commitment
1. We are committed to treating you fairly when we manage your Investment Account. As part of this commitment, we have prepared this Order Handling and Best Interest ("Policy") to provide you with information on how we will receive and transmit your Orders to the Execution Broker.
2. Under the FCA’s Rules, when transmitting Orders to other entities for execution, we are required to act in your best interests and to take all reasonable steps to obtain the best possible result (the "Best Interest Obligation"). This Policy therefore sets out the most important aspects of the arrangements that we have put in place to comply with our Best Interest Obligation.
3. Unless otherwise defined in this Policy, defined terms shall have the same meaning as in the Investment Terms.
Your consent
1. By opening a Plum Investment Account, you agree to this Policy. You understand that we must keep this Policy under review. We therefore review it at least once a year. If we update this Policy, we will let you know by sending you a message.
Order Execution Methods
1. We do not execute your Orders. Instead, we receive your Orders through WithPlum and transmit these to an appropriate broker for execution.
2. In selecting an appropriate broker for execution we have taken into account our Best Interest Obligation. We have reviewed the Execution Broker’s dealing arrangements and are satisfied that it considers all the Execution Factors (and places relative importance on these Execution Factors) in a manner that corresponds with our own Policy.
3. The Execution Broker is authorised and regulated by the FCA, and therefore owes a duty of best execution in respect of Orders received for execution. Under the FCA Rules, the Execution Broker is obliged to have in place a written order execution policy that it will follow when carrying out Orders. Details of the Execution Broker’s and custodian’s best execution policy are available here.
Execution Factors
1. The factors (the "Execution Factors"that we have to take into account when placing Orders on your behalf will include:
2. 1. the price of the investment;
  2. the costs associated with the transaction;
  3. the likely speed of getting the transaction done;
  4. the likelihood of execution and settlement;
  5. the size and nature of the order; and
  6. While price and costs will generally be the key factors in any decision to deal, the overall benefit to you of a particular transaction may be affected by the other Execution Factors.
    This means that our obligation to try to obtain the best possible result when carrying-out our Orders may not necessarily always equate to the best headline price in every case.
3. When determining the relative importance of each of the Execution Factors, we will take into account the following criteria:
4. 1. the fact that we have classified you as a “Retail Client”;
  2. the characteristics of the particular order, and the characteristics of the investment that is subject to that Order; and
  3. the characteristics of the execution venues on or with which the Order can be placed.
Transmitting orders to us and choice of venue
1. We receive Orders from you through WithPlum and relay these to the Execution Broker for execution. When we receive an Order from you we will promptly transmit this Order for execution.
2. Orders for Funds can only be executed through the operator of the Fund and, therefore, there is only one venue on which we are able to execute your order.
Order Aggregation
1. We may aggregate (combine) Orders placed via WithPlum with Orders of other clients for execution. However, the effect of order aggregation may, on some occasions, work to a particular client’s disadvantage.
Specific instructions from you
1. If you wish to withdraw funds from your Plum Investment Account or close it, we may have to liquidate investments to meet your instruction. If you have given us specific instructions (for example, if you have asked us to satisfy the withdrawal request by a specific deadline), this may limit the extent to which we are able to abide by this Policy.
2. We will not advise you on the purchase or disposal of your investments.
The Best Execution Policy
1. By agreeing to these Terms, you will be giving your consent to our best execution arrangements. Details of the custodian’s best execution policy is available here.

Section 5 - Customer investments and risks

This is not intended to be a comprehensive statement of all the risks to which investors might be exposed and there may be others that exist now, or which may arise in the future. We have set out the main risks to which investors will be exposed, as we understand them, but warn that investing is always exposed to new risks and that some risks once thought to be very low can rapidly develop into high and serious risks.

Key Risks
1. Past performance is not an indicator of future performance
2. The value of investments may go down as well as up
3. You are not certain to make a profit
4. You may make a loss
5. You may lose your entire investment
6. The price or value of investments may fluctuate significantly
7. Any income distributions may also fluctuate significantly
Risks relating to Funds
1. The investments held for the benefit of your Plum Investment Account will be made in Funds.
2. The performance of a Fund is dependent on its investment policy and strategy, the skills and expertise of those responsible for managing its investments, and the market(s) in which it invests.
3. A Fund may be subject to suspensions in valuation, during which time dealing in a Fund will not be possible. Such suspensions generally occur in exceptional conditions, for instance where the investments of the Fund cannot be accurately valued or during periods of significant market turmoil.
4. The value of the Fund is dependent upon the underlying investments held by them and the prices of those investments may vary according to the markets on which they are listed or traded.
5. A Fund may close, and the liquidated value of the underlying investments may result in a loss.
6. If there is little liquidity in the market for a Fund, there may be substantial differences between the buying price and the selling price.
7. Funds exposed to overseas markets may involve different risks from UK focussed Funds.
8. Investments in overseas Funds depend not only on the performance of the Fund but also upon foreign exchange rates which may change adversely affecting the value of the Fund.

  3. any applicable Key Features Document constitute the agreement (the "SIPP Product Provider Agreement") between you and the SIPP Product Provider.
Commencement and status of the SIPP Product Provider Agreement
1. The SIPP Product Provider Agreement will be legally binding when you accept these Investment Terms. However, the SIPP Product Provider will only start to provide the Platform Services to you if, and when, you open a Platform Product and, accordingly, those terms relating to the Platform Product will only be applicable after that time. The SIPP Product Provider Agreement has no minimum duration period.
2. The SIPP Product Provider Agreement is governed by the laws of England and Wales. If any provision of the SIPP Product Provider Agreement is or becomes invalid or unenforceable, the relevant provision will be treated as if it were not in the SIPP Product Provider Agreement, and the remaining provisions will still be valid and enforceable.
Selecting and appointing the SIPP Product Provider on your behalf
1. We have entered into an agreement with the SIPP Product Provider for each of our clients (including you) for the provision of the SIPP Platform Products and dealing, safe custody, settlement and post-execution services. The additional terms that apply to the services provided to you by the SIPP Product Provider and the SIPP Platform Products are set out in Section 2, Part B (the "SIPP Terms").

  5. we are authorised as your agent to terminate the appointment of the SIPP Product Provider and to instruct the SIPP Product Provider to transfer the SIPP Platform Products and the assets and cash in relation to your SIPP Platform Products to an alternative provider selected and appointed by us, provided in doing so we act in your best interests and in accordance with the FCA Rules and all applicable laws.

If you are not sure whether our Investment Services, the SIPP Platform Products, or the Funds are suitable for you then we recommend that you seek advice from a qualified financial adviser.
3. Prior to making any decision to invest, you must read the "Key Investor Information Document" or "KIID" relating to the relevant Fund. The KIIDs contain important information of which you should be aware. You can access the KIIDs via Plum.
4. Neither we nor the SIPP Product Provider will provide you, or be responsible for providing you, with any financial, legal or tax advice. Please note that certain provisions contained in the Terms, the SIPP Product Provider Agreement, and within the Plum product(s) set out information relating to tax treatment. You should note that tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and our current understanding of law and HMRC practice, which may be subject to change in the future.

We will not be held liable for any loss incurred by you which arises, either wholly or in part, as a result of an event which is beyond our reasonable control to prevent and the effect of which is beyond our reasonable power to avoid in relation to your Plum Account and which may arise from delays or changes in market conditions, market fluctuation, currency fluctuation, computer failure, labour dispute, inability to communicate with you and/or the SIPP Product Provider, or for any other reason and whereby we are either unable to take or refrain from taking or shall not be obliged to take or refrain from taking any action as a consequence thereof.

We will not be responsible in any other circumstance for the acts or omissions of any such third parties.
4. We do not accept responsibility for any loss, damages or costs you may incur as a result of:
5. 1. any cause beyond our reasonable control to prevent (as described in paragraph 18.2 above);
  2. the acts or omissions of the SIPP Product Provider; and/or

5. The Pension Provider will act on all instructions transmitted to it from Plum on your behalf and the Pension Provider shall not be liable to you for any error that Plum may make in the detail or provision of such instructions.
6. The value of your Plum SIPP must be maintained above the minimum value of £1. The Pension Provider may change the minimum value from time to time and will notify you of any such change. In the event that the value of your Plum SIPP remains below this value for more than a 12-month period, then the Pension Provider may require us to close your Plum SIPP by giving notice to you.
7. The Plum SIPP is only available through the Plum App; accordingly, all reports and documentation will be provided to you for access via the Plum App. By applying for a Plum SIPP, you agree that you do not require the Pension Provider to provide reports, statements, contract notes or other documentation associated with your Plum SIPP other than in electronic form via these means. You must also keep contact details up to date so that we can notify you when any important documents are sent via the Plum App.
8. You accept that where the Pension Provider is required to provide you with written notice then this will be given to you by means of electronic correspondence as set out above.
9. There may be circumstances that require the Pension Provider to review these Terms and the charges being made. In this event, the Pension Provider will notify you advising you of any amendments to these Terms required by the Pension Provider at least 30 days prior to the change taking effect. However, the Pension Provider does reserve the right in extreme circumstances to vary these Terms with shorter notice e.g. a change to an existing, or implementation of a new regulatory requirement which the Pension Provider has to action immediately.
10. Value Added Tax will be levied on all appropriate expenses and fees at the prevailing rate.
11. You authorise the Pension Provider to provide HMRC, the FCA and any other relevant authority with all the relevant information about your Plum SIPP and its investments, as required to do so by them.

13. The Pension Provider has categorised you as a Retail Customer for all purposes of the FCA Rules. As a Retail Customer you will benefit from the greatest level of protection available under the regulatory system.
Opening a Plum SIPP
1. Your Plum SIPP will be established when the Pension Provider receives all necessary information from you or when all of their requirements have been met if this is later. The Pension Provider reserves the right at their absolute discretion to refuse your application for a Plum SIPP without providing any reason for their decision.
2. You may not open a Plum SIPP if you are a US Person (as defined by the US Internal Revenue Service). If at any point you become a US Person as so defined, then you must immediately inform the Pension Provider and they will require you to close your Product(s).

4. You have the right to cancel your Plum SIPP. The right to cancel applies to the commencement of the pension plan, and on all transfers into the pension plan. You can find the Pension Providers cancellation notice in the Pension Providers Key Features Document, which will give you the right to cancel within the 30 day cancellation period. If you decide to cancel your pension plan, any contributions will be returned to you less any tax relief claimed on your behalf, which will be returned to HMRC. If you choose to cancel in relation to a Transfer any investments held in your Plum SIPP acquired by the transferred monies will be sold and the Pension Provider will return the subsequent cash to the original pension provider. Please note that it may not always be possible to return a Transfer In to the original pension Scheme if you cancel after the transfer has been received by us. In these circumstances you will need to arrange for another pension Scheme to accept the transfer and the Pension Provider will retain the funds until such a time as a replacement provider has been notified to us. The Pension Provider will follow any investment instructions that you have given to us during this cancellation period. In the event of cancellation, the net realisable value of any assets purchased and subsequently disinvested will form the basis of the amount returned. This means that having taken into account any fees or charges paid in relation to the investment and any price movements (particularly downwards), you may get back less than you originally invested.
Contributions and "Transfers In" to your Plum SIPP
1. Contributions to your Plum SIPP are made in accordance with Section 1 (General Terms), paragraph 12 (Opening your Plum Account and making Contributions).
2. It is your responsibility to monitor your Plum SIPP contribution limits. You are not permitted to make contributions that will not be eligible for tax relief. If you become subject to a reduced Annual Allowance (known as the Money Purchase Annual Allowance Rules) as a result of flexibly accessing pension benefits after 6th April 2015, then you are obliged to inform us of this immediately and provide the date that this occurred.
3. Contributions cannot be refunded other than;
4. 1. in accordance with your instruction to cancel your SIPP under paragraph 2.4 above, or;
  2. where conditions are met to allow a ‘Refund of Excess Contribution Lump Sum’ payment to be made i.e. where your contribution exceeds your earnings in a tax year, or
  3. where explicit instruction is received from HMRC or other relevant authorities.
5. The Pension Provider may decline any Contribution or Transfer In entirely at their discretion.
6. Under current law, your own personal contributions will normally be treated as being paid net of basic rate tax, which the Pension Provider will reclaim from HMRC to the extent you are entitled to tax relief on that contribution. You are responsible for informing us if you are subsequently no longer entitled to tax relief on the whole or part of a contribution. Any sum reclaimed will not be available for investment until it is received from HMRC which can take several months from the date of your contribution. You are responsible for claiming any higher rate tax relief to which you are entitled.
7. For payments received by the Pension Provider in respect of "Transfers In" your monies will only be cleared for investment after the relevant banks have cleared the monies. This typically means that cheque payments will be available for investment no later than the end of the 7th Business Day starting on the day the Pension Provider receives your cheque or any supporting documentation (whichever is the later) and for electronic payments no later than the 5th Business Day. If a payment is not honoured, then the Pension Provider will adjust the cash balance in your Plum SIPP.
8. All Contributions and Transfer In values the Pension Provider receives will be applied to your Plum SIPP.
9. You may "Transfer In" cash to your Plum SIPP. Alternatively, if you are transferring a pension where investments are held via an investment platform service and the pension investments that are held are also available under the Plum SIPP, then you may request for those investments to be transferred in-specie. If those investments under the Plum SIPP are available with lower fund management fees you will have the option to convert to those investments.
Cash and Investments
1. All monies received by the Pension Provider in respect of your Plum SIPP will be held by the Pension Provider in an account designated as a trust and segregated from the Pension Provider’s own funds in accordance with the FCA rules. The trustee account is a pooled account;and in the event of a bank’s failure, your claim will be for a share of the cash held in all pooled accounts at the bank. The banks used by the Pension Provider are entirely independent of them and they do not accept any liability for any default or delay in the distribution of funds in the event of the banks failure.

4. All investments other than cash are held by the Pension Provider in a pooled investment (omnibus) account in the name of the nominee of an approved third-party custodian. This means that individual customer entitlements may not be identified by individual entries in the records of the nominee. If there is a shortfall following default by the nominee all customer accounts will share proportionally in that shortfall. The Pension Provider accepts no responsibility for the default or failure of a custodian or nominee. However, this does not limit the Pension Provider’s liability to you for its own respective fraud, wilful default or negligence.
5. Investments held within your Plum SIPP must not be used as a security for a loan.
6. The Pension Provider will not be responsible for any loss (including loss of profit) in relation to, or diminution in value of, any investment:

  2. not acquired by the Pension Provider or not disposed of by the Pension Provider in accordance with their rights under these Terms; or
  3. disposed of by the Pension Provider in accordance with these Terms unless such loss or diminution in value results from the Pension Provider’s fraud, wilful misconduct, negligence or breach of regulatory duty or the fraud, wilful misconduct, negligence or breach of regulatory duty of any of their employees or agents.
8. The Pension Provider will be entitled to dispose of any investment if in their reasonable opinion continued retention of such investment would be unlawful, contrary to the Pension Regulations or would impose tax or other costs on the Pension Provider or expose them to liabilities which in each case they may not be able to meet from your Plum SIPP.
9. The Pension Provider will be entitled to dispose of any investment if required to do so by the terms of any agreement to which it is a party. The Pension Provider will make all reasonable endeavours to inform you of such an event in advance, where feasible.
10. Where investment income is received net into your Plum SIPP the Pension Provider will reclaim tax where permitted by, and in accordance with, current HMRC regulations. Such tax reclaims will be submitted to HMRC by the 31st January following the tax year in which the deduction was made. Any tax reclaim received will promptly be credited to your Plum SIPP.
11. The Pension Provider will use reasonable endeavours to promptly notify you of a Corporate Action notified to it by a company or third-party custodian where relevant. There may be instances when the Pension Provider is not notified of a Corporate Action (or is not provided with sufficient information in time by them) and as a result are unable to pass on the details to you. In such circumstances, the Pension Provider will not be liable to you for any loss suffered.
12. When a mandatory Corporate Action is announced where no option is available to shareholders and no firm payment date is known in advance, the Pension Provider will notify you only after the new securities or cash have been received and credited to your Plum SIPP.
13. The Pension Provider may, at its sole discretion, not make available to you all of the choices that are offered by the company relating to the Corporate Action.
14. We at our discretion may notify you of a Corporate Action, but are not obliged to do so.

3. Provided, in doing so the Pension Provider acts at all times in accordance with all applicable laws and the FCA Rules, the Pension Provider may reasonably reimburse themselves in respect of the liability, charges or costs by way of making a charge to your Plum SIPP as they may reasonably determine which they have incurred as a result of one of the following events occurring:

Section 3 – Plum’s Conflicts Management Policy

Introduction
1. We are committed to taking measures to recognise, supervise, examine and resolve conflicts of interest. We recognise that it is not possible to eliminate all sources of conflict of interest; however, treating our customers fairly and in accordance with FCA Rules and principles remains our primary objective. This policy encompasses the relationships with customers and third-party contacts.
What is a conflict of interest?
1. A conflict of interest is a situation in which Plum (or any of its personnel) finds itself in a position where its own interests conflict with the duties and obligations owed to its clients or, a situation in which Plum’s duty to one client conflicts with its duty to another.
Identifying conflicts of interest
1. For the purposes of identifying the types of conflict and potential conflicts that arise which may entail a material risk of damage to the interests of a client, we must consider whether Plum or its directors, employees, or contractors ("Plum Personnel") or any other person linked by control to Plum:
2. 1. is likely to make a financial gain, or avoid a financial loss, at the expense of a client;
  2. has an interest in the outcome of a service provided to a client or transaction carried out on behalf of a client, which is distinct from the client’s interest in that outcome;
  3. has an incentive to favour the interest of another client or group of clients over the interests of the client;
  4. carries on the same business as a client, or
  5. receives or will receive from a person other than a client an inducement in relation to a service provided to the client, in the form of remuneration, goods or services.
Conflict Situations
1. We have identified a number of situations which may give rise to a potential conflict of interest. These situations include, but are not limited to, the following:
2. 1. we receive gifts, entertainment or other monetary and non-monetary benefits from our service providers or business partners (for example, the fund managers of the Funds we make available to clients through Plum), which could give rise to a conflict with respect to the duties that we owe to our clients;
  2. Plum Personnel who have outside commitments (e.g. directorships or other outside business interests) may be influenced to act in a manner that conflicts with the interests of Plum or its clients; and
  3. where Plum Personnel invest for their own account in certain investments which are retained as investments for client accounts.
Conflict Management
1. We have developed protocols to manage conflicts of interest set out in this document to enable us to act without bias or damage to your interests. Our employees are provided with training about the protocols and the standards of conduct to which they must adhere. Our management is responsible for ensuring the protocols are adhered to and to deal with any conflict that may arise.
2. We maintain a log of conflicts that arise, and we note on it each conflict was monitored and any solution which was developed and applied to resolve the problem and to prevent the customer's interests from being disadvantaged. The effectiveness of our protocols is assessed by internal audit staff members who execute their duties in a wholly independent capacity.
3. 1. We have in place procedures to prevent unauthorised access to information and to prevent the dissemination of information.
  2. We ensure that all Plum Personnel are subject to appropriate restrictions and monetary limits for any gifts or entertainment received.
  3. We ensure that all Plum Personnel pre-clear and report any personal trading activity which may conflict with the interests of our clients.
  4. We ensure that our personnel’s external commitments do not conflict with the interests of Plum or its clients;
  5. Where our functions could create an internal conflict, we separate the duties appropriately. The operations functions are maintained and conducted separately from the front office functions and an appropriate level of qualification, expertise and supervision is applied.
  6. Staff remuneration is by means of a basic salary which is not linked to the underlying performance of your Account or any underlying investment. A remuneration committee agrees and monitors awards, including for example, any performance related pay, to achieve consistency and equitability and to ensure they do not lead to conditions which may foster conflict.

Quai will buy and sell investments on your behalf on an execution only basis. Quai will not give you any advice on the suitability of any investment or any order you give it.

Quai has selected Platform Securities to execute the orders you give us. Their details are as follows:

Platform Securities LLP (FCA Number 214206)
Tricorn House
51-53 Hagley Road
Edgbaston
Birmingham
West Midlands
B16 8TP

Quai have selected Platform Securities taking into account its obligations to you. Quai have reviewed Platform Securities and their dealing arrangements and are satisfied that they consider all of the execution factors in a manner that matches with its own policy.

ORDER EXECUTION

The execution factors Quai take into account are:

The price of the investment;
The costs associated with the transaction;
The likely speed of getting the transaction done;
The likelihood of execution and settlement;
The size and nature of the order; and
Any other consideration relevant to the execution of an order.

When determining the relative importance of each of the execution factors Quai will take into account the following criteria:

The fact that Quai have classified you as a “Retail Client”;
The characteristics of the particular order, and the characteristics of the investment that is subject to that order; and
The characteristics of the execution venues on or with which the order can be placed.

TRANSMITTING ORDERS

Quai will receive orders from you via WithPlum and transmit these to Platform Securities for execution.

Quai shall satisfy the following conditions when carrying out your order:

Ensure that orders executed on your behalf are promptly and accurately recorded and allocated;
Carry out otherwise comparable client orders sequentially and promptly unless the characteristics of the order or prevailing market conditions make this impracticable, or the interest of the client requires otherwise.
Inform you about any material difficulty relevant to the proper carrying out of orders promptly upon becoming aware of the difficulty.

SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS FROM YOU

If you wish to withdraw funds from SIPP Platform Products or close it, Quai may have to liquidate investments in order to meet your instruction. If you have asked Quai to satisfy the withdrawal request by a specific deadline, this may limit the extent to which it is able to apply this policy.

ORDER AGGREGATION

Quai may aggregate orders placed in respect of your SIPP Platform Products with orders of other customers for execution, which will be executed in line with our order allocation policy. The effect of order aggregation may, on some occasions, work to a particular customers disadvantage.

EXECUTION VENUES

The execution venue will be dependent on the investment and will be determined by Platform Securities at the time of execution.

Platform Securities maintains their own order execution policy.

BEST EXECUTION POLICY

By agreeing to these terms you will be giving your consent to Platform Securities order execution arrangements. Details of Platform Securities best execution arrangements are available upon request.

If you have any questions or doubts about any of the content in these Order Handling Services Terms, you should seek appropriate professional advice before opening your Stock Investing Account.

We may update these Order Handling Services Terms in accordance with any amendment provisions in force from time to time between you and us under the Plum General Terms and Conditions.

About us

Where you wish to trade Securities as part of the Order Handling Services, your Orders will be executed by the Third Party Broker, meaning you will need to open a separate account directly with the Third Party Broker which will be governed by terms and conditions of the Third Party Broker (the TPB Terms). Information on the Third Party Brokers’ regulatory status is detailed in the TPB Terms. If you do not agree to the TPB Terms, then you may not be able to submit Orders in relation to Securities. The TPB Terms are a matter between you and the Third Party Broker and we do not have any rights or obligations under such TPB Terms.

You acknowledge that the TBP Terms may also apply to you where you wish to trade in Securities and you should read the TBP Terms carefully before agreeing to enter into such TBP Terms.

We will not provide you with any investment, legal, tax or other form of advice, nor can you request any such advice from us. You are solely responsible for any decisions taken in respect of any and all Transactions that you choose to enter or not enter into.
7. We will treat you as a Retail Client in relation to the Order Handling Services unless we have informed you otherwise in writing, including following a request made by you in connection with other services provided by us that are not addressed by these Order Handling Services Terms. You may request a different client categorisation to the one we have given you and, if you do so, we will need to contact you to discuss what further information we may require and what additional requirements may apply in this context. Please be aware that we may reject any request made by you to change your client categorisation.
8. We may be required to obtain certain information from you such that we can comply with our obligations under applicable law and regulation and you agree to provide any such information that we may reasonably request in the format within which we request it. This includes, but is not limited to, any information we need to verify your identity, any information we require for purposes of reporting Transactions, and any information as to your knowledge and experience in relation to Securities that we may need to gather to assess whether or not such Securities, and the Order Handling Services generally, are appropriate for you.

2. In order to receive the Fee you must ensure that you have the Plum App and that you have opened a Stock Investing Account with us. Further information relating to how to open accounts with us is provided in the Plum General Terms and Conditions and via our Website. When you open a Stock Investing Account, you will be deemed to confirm that the representations and warranties contained in the Plum General Terms and Conditions are true and accurate, and each time you submit an Order you will be deemed to confirm that such representations and warranties remain true and accurate.

Unless you have notified us of a lost or stolen device in accordance with the provisions in the Plum General Terms and Conditions, we are entitled to treat any Orders made via the Plum App as legitimate and rely on those Orders and you shall remain solely liable for any Orders and any Transactions that arise as a result.
Orders and Transactions
1. In order to enter into a Transaction, you must submit an Order to us in accordance with this Clause 3 of these Order Handling Services Terms.
2. An Order may only be made via the Plum App by completing the relevant information required to create such Order. Any Order is binding on you and you bear sole responsibility for any obligations arising out of or in connection with any Orders or Transactions. We retain sole discretion as to whether to accept or otherwise transmit any Order. Our acceptance of your Order will be evidenced through a confirmation in the Plum App. Where your Order relates to Securities, the Third Party Broker shall retain sole discretion as to whether to execute that Order. Under normal market conditions a market order would generally be fully executed. Partial order execution may occur in the event there are not enough Securities to fill your order or due to unexpected technical reasons in which case the unexecuted part of your order will be cancelled. You acknowledge and agree that we are reliant on various third-parties to facilitate the execution of your Orders and we cannot, therefore, guarantee that your Orders will be executed, nor can we guarantee that there will not be a delay in the execution of your Order. The price of any Security to which your Order relates may move between our acceptance of the Order and its ultimate execution and you acknowledge that such price movements may work in your favour or against you. Where we do not accept your Order, we will use reasonable endeavours to provide you with a reason why, save where the provision of such information to you would be prohibited by applicable law or regulation.
3. We reserve the right to cancel an Order previously accepted where we reasonably believe that:
4. - (a) the Order was not made in accordance with these Order Handling Services Terms;
  - (b) the Order breaches or may reasonably breach a Risk Control;
  - (c) you no longer have sufficient funds in your Plum Wallet to cover any financial obligations that may arise in connection with the Order;
  - (d) we reasonably believe that the Order has not originated from you;
  - (e) the Order is suspicious in nature and we wish to clarify it with you;
  - (f) we may be in breach of these Order Handling Services Terms or applicable law or regulation if we continue to accept the Order; or
  - (g) any other circumstances arise following acceptance of the Order but prior to it becoming a Transaction that mean it is no longer reasonable or possible for us to act on the Order, including, but not limited to:
  - - (i) the Order is suspicious in nature and we wish to clarify it with you;
    - (ii) a Force Majeure Event has occurred;
    - (iii) the relevant issuer of the Security becomes subject to an Insolvency Event;
    - (iv) trading in the relevant Security has been suspended by any relevant underlying market or exchange;
    - (v) we or the Third Party Broker no longer supports the Security to which the Order relates; or
    - (vi) we are required by any underlying market or exchange or by the Third Party Broker to cancel the Order.
5. Save where prohibited under applicable law or regulation, we will use reasonable endeavours to provide you with a reason as to why we have cancelled any Order submitted by you.
6. We will determine in our sole discretion what Orders are made available. At present, the only form of Order that can be made is a Market Order. We may notify you from time to time of any changes to the types of Orders that are available. Orders can only be made in relation to Securities and we will not facilitate any Orders that do not relate to Securities.
7. We determine, in our sole discretion, what Securities are made available via the Plum App and we may change such Securities at any time without notice to you. If we no longer wish to support a Security in which you have a Position, you may be required to close that Position and, in such circumstances, we will provide you with advance notice in writing of the relevant date by which you must close that Position. If you have not closed that Position by the relevant date specified in such notice, we will close that Position at the prevailing market price of that particular Security.
8. By default, all Orders will be treated as Manual Orders unless you have indicated that you wish for that Order to be an Automated Order.. Any Automated Orders will be executed on the predefined date selected for the transfer of relevant funds to the Stock Investing Account.
9. As may be applicable, where you submit an Order outside Trading Hours, that Order will be held until the commencement of the next period of Trading Hours and subsequently actioned during that period. In such circumstances, you may not be notified of the relevant price of any Securities to which that Order relates until that Order becomes a Transaction. The minimum value for Automated Orders is GBP 1.00. If the value available in the Plum Wallet to facilitate an Automated Order is less than this amount, then the Automated Order will not be created.We will notify you via the Plum App in the event that any of your Automated Orders cannot be created due to insufficient funds.
10. When your close a Position by submitting an Order to sell a Security, the Third Party Broker will credit any proceeds from that Transaction to your Stock Investing Account minus any fees or charges due and payable to us, but we will place a restriction on your ability to withdraw those funds from your Stock Investing Account until such time as the Transaction settles.
11. When you submit an Order to buy a Security we may agree to lend you the money to fund your buy Order by using an equal amount of funds from an executed sell Order(s) pending settlement. At any time, you will not be able to borrow money that exceeds the funds from executed but not yet settled sell Order(s). The availability payment of the arrangements set out in this Clause 3.10 is determined in ouris at our sole discretion and we may choose to refuse to offer this payment model at any time and for any reason (which we will not have to explain to you), but we will notify you if this payment model is not available to you. You acknowledge and agree that if you borrow funds from us under this Clause 3.10 you will owe us a debt equal to the value of the funds borrowed and you will repay this amount to us as soon as any executed sell Order(s) settles and you agree that we may deduct the value of any borrowed funds from the proceeds of your settled sell Order(s) when we credit such proceeds to your Plum Wallet.
12. We will not aggregate your Orders will those received from our other clients However, the Third Party Broker may, when it considers it necessary and in their customers’ best interests, aggregate (i.e. combine together) multiple orders. In certain circumstances, the aggregation of Orders may result in you obtaining a less favourable price on resulting Transactions. Because your investment may be bought or sold alongside the shares of other customers, the price obtained may not be the same as if it had been an individual order. You acknowledge and agree that we shall not have any liability to you as a result of you obtaining a less favourable price because of the aggregation of Orders by the Third Party Broker.
13. We will take all sufficient steps to provide you with best execution in relation to Orders and such Orders will be handled and executed in accordance with our Order Execution Policy. For Orders relating to Securities, you acknowledge that the Third Party Broker may not be subject to best execution requirements in the same manner as we are and it shall execute Orders in Securities in accordance with its obligations of the applicable law and regulation of the jurisdiction in which it is established.
14. By agreeing to these Order Handling Services Terms, you expressly agree that we may execute your Orders outside a regulated market or multilateral trading facility.
15. We shall have no liability to you for the actions or omissions of the Third Party Broker in relation to any Orders, Transactions or Positions relating to Securities.
Risk Controls and Limits
1. You acknowledge and agree that any Orders or Transactions submitted under or created by the use of the Order Handling Service may be subject to risk limits, risk tolerances and credit limits imposed by Plum from time to time (the Risk Controls). The Risk Controls may be general or specific to you, may apply to all Securities or only certain Securities, and at all times are imposed, amended, maintained or removed at the sole discretion of Plum without prior notice to you.
2. Plum may reject, cancel or amend any Order that, in its sole discretion, breaches or may breach a Risk Control.

Your Positions
1. Plum does not hold any Securities in connection to the Order Handling Services on your behalf. Securities are held by the Third Party Broker in accordance with applicable law of the jurisdiction in which the Third Party Broker is established and the TPB Terms agreed between and Third Party Broker. We will not be liable to you for the acts, omissions or insolvency of the Third Party Broker or any sub-custodian appointed in accordance with this Clause 7, provided that we have exercised due skill, care and diligence in the selection of such Third Party Broker.
Fees and Taxes
1. You have sole responsibility for making any payments that are due and payable under these Order Handling Services Terms. When you submit an Order to buy a Security, the amount you are required to pay in connection with that Order will become due and payable once that Order becomes a Transaction. It is your responsibility to ensure that there are sufficient funds on your Stock Investing Account to cover the value of your Transactions, including the payment of any fees due and payable to us in connection with those Transactions. The amount of fees that are due and payable to us in connection with Transactions are detailed on the Plum App and the Plum Website. You should familiarise yourself with such information before submitting any Orders.
2. You acknowledge and agree that the Third Party Broker may charge you additional fees in relation to Transactions in Securities and that Plum has no control or influence over such fees or the terms governing the payment of such fees. You have a direct obligation to the Third Party Broker to pay such fees in accordance with the requirements imposed by the Third Party Broker under the TPB Terms.
3. All amounts due and payable under these Order Handling Services shall be made in the Base Currency. Where a particular Transaction relates to a Security denominated in a currency other than the Base Currency, we will perform a currency conversion at the relevant prevailing exchange rate so as to facilitate the settlement of that Transaction. Similarly, where proceeds of any Transaction are in a currency other than the Base Currency, we will convert these proceeds into the Base Currency for the purposes of crediting such proceeds to your Stock Investing Account. You acknowledge and agree that, where you enter into Transactions relating to Securities which are not denominated in the Base Currency, you are exposing yourself to currency risk and you acknowledge and agree that it is your sole responsibility to manage this risk and that we are not liable to you for any losses arising in connection with such risk.
4. We reserve the right to deduct any monies from your Stock Investing Account to satisfy your obligation to pay us any amount under these Order Handling Services Terms.
5. If at any time in relation to the Order Handling Services we owe you and you owe us the same amount of money in the same currency, then each of our respective obligations to pay such monies to the other will be automatically satisfied and discharged. In the event that each of us owes one another different amounts of money in the same currency, then whichever of us owes more may pay the excess to the other and each of our respective obligations to pay such monies to the other will be satisfied and discharged.
6. Plum may, at any time and without prior notice to you, set off any liability of yours to us under these Order Handling Services Terms against any liability of ours to you under these Order Handling Services Terms, whether either liability is present or future, liquidated or unliquidated. If the liabilities to be set off are expressed in different currencies, we may convert either liability at a market rate of exchange for the purpose of set off.
7. You have sole responsibility for determining whether and to what extent any taxes or tax reporting obligations may apply in connection with your Transactions and your Positions. Plum shall have no responsibility for facilitating or otherwise making any payments of tax for or on your behalf and we provide no warranty or representation as to your tax position or the tax treatment of any Transactions. You must inform us of any changes to your tax status during the duration of these Order Handling Services Terms.
8. Where you wish to deal in Securities, you may be required, either by us or the Third Party Broker, to complete certain US tax documentation prior to submitting any Orders in relation to Securities.
Market Data
1. Plum may make available to you certain market data or other information in relation to the Securities (the Market Data). Any decision to make available Market Data is made in Plum’s sole discretion. The relevant Market Data is provided by a third-party unaffiliated to Plum called IEX Cloud Services LLC. Further information on IEX Cloud Services LLC can be found here: https://iexcloud.io.
2. The provision of Market Data does not form part of the Order Handling Services and Plum does not accept any responsibility for its accuracy or completeness, nor do we owe any obligations to you under these Order Handling Services Terms with respect to the provision of that Market Data.
3. You acknowledge and agree that you do not acquire any intellectual property rights in the Market Data and that IEX Cloud Services LLC retains all such intellectual property rights.
4. You will indemnify and hold Plum its affiliates and subsidiaries harmless against all Losses and all other reasonable professional costs and expenses suffered or incurred by Plum arising out of or in connection with any use of the Market Data which:
5. - (a) involves use of the Market Data otherwise than in connection with the receipt of the Order Handling Services by you;
  - (b) violates, or encourages the violation of, the legal rights of others;
  - (c) results in the conducting, promotion or encouragement of illegal activity; or
  - (d) is unlawful, invasive, infringing, defamatory or fraudulent.
Corporate Actions
1. Unless otherwise agreed between you and us, any dividends or other cash distributions that are paid on Securities held by us on your behalf will be credited to the Stock Investing Account less any applicable withholding tax. The Currency Conversion Fee will be applied on dividends or other relevant cash distributions. We will not be responsible for claiming back any withholding tax on your behalf and, as per Clause 8.7, you have sole responsibility for addressing any tax obligations that arise in connection with Transactions.
2. We may, are not required to, inform you of any ordinary or extraordinary general meeting of any issuer of a Security you hold in your Positions. We may, but are not obliged to arrange for you to receive any information that receive in relation to an issuer of a Security.
3. We may, but are not required to, inform you or otherwise arrange for the exercise of any voting rights that relate to any Securities that we hold on your behalf.
4. If we are holding Securities on your behalf for which there is a rights issue, we will use reasonable endeavours to notify you of such an event. On notification, you can take up the option to receive the rights and have the opportunity to subscribe for new stocks, ignore the rights or sell the rights, if possible. In order to prevent renounceable rights from becoming worthless when they expire, if you have not provided us with any instructions by any deadlines specified by us to you, we may, but are not required to, sell the rights (if possible) on your behalf before the expiry of the rights. The proceeds from the sale of the rights will then be credited to your Stock Investing Account net of any applicable fees or charges.
5. We are not required to notify you of any class actions or group litigation that are underway or proposed in relation to any Securities that we are holding, or have previously held, on your behalf which are notified to us from time to time, nor are we required to act on any such notifications.
Termination
1. You or we may terminate your Stock Investing Account at any time and for any reason by you giving us notice, or we giving you notice. Notice of termination will not affect any responsibility for any obligations arising out of or in connection with these Order Handling Terms, including any Orders that have yet to be executed – we will continue to execute those in accordance with these Order Handling Services Terms (which may include refusal to execute Orders).

ORDER HANDLING AND BEST INTEREST POLICY

Introduction

Plum is committed to treating customers honestly, transparently and in the best interest of our customers.

This Order Handling and Best Interest Policy (“Policy”) provides information to customers of Plum (references to "Plum", "us", "our" and/or "we" means Saveable Limited) on when, where and how we will treat your orders when received and transmitted for execution.

Purpose

The purpose of this Policy is to set out Plum’s approach to meeting our customer best interest and order handling obligations by setting the methods by which we take all sufficient steps to obtain the best possible results when acting on their behalf.

This Policy sets out our execution model and our overarching approach to overseeing execution, including the execution factors considered. In addition, the Policy sets out the key risks to best execution and the governance relevant to the monitoring and oversight of this Policy.

Our Execution Model

US Stocks
Through the Plum App, Plum offers its customers execution access to US stocks listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and the Nasdaq Stock Market (“NASDAQ”). Plum receives the order from the customer through the Plum App and transmits the order to our third-party broker for execution.
Plum utilises a third-party broker, Alpaca Securities LLC (“Alpaca”), a US broker dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) and the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (”SIPC”). Alpaca has relationships with multiple third party brokers that it can access for the purpose of directing orders in securities to particular market centres for execution and as such has the capacity to achieve best execution.
Under no circumstances will we act in any other capacity and a transaction will arise between you and Alpaca.
Details on how the Alpaca executes its orders can be obtained in the Alpaca Customer Agreement , https://files.alpaca.markets/disclosures/library/AcctAppMarginAndCustAgmt.pdf.
Money Market Fund ("Plum Interest")
Through the Plum App, Plum offers its customers execution access to Money Market Fund (MMF) which is the BlackRock ICS Sterling Government Liquidity Fund (reference no. 632553) issued by BlackRock Investment Management (UK) Limited (reference no. 119293), authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. The MMF is a segregated compartment established and maintained by the Institutional Cash Series.
Plum receives the order from the customer through the Plum App and transmits the order to the MMF Manager for execution. The MMF Manager is BlackRock Asset Management Ireland Limited which is responsible for the day-to-day management of the MMF, either directly or by way of delegation.
Details of the MMF Managers and the executing broker’s Execution and Order Placement Policy is available here.

Order Execution

We will not execute any orders (either stock or MMF) that you submit via the Plum App, but rather will transmit orders for stocks to our third party broker Alpaca for execution or onward transmission by Alpaca to market centres or other third party brokers, or for MMFs to the MMF Manager BlackRock.

Whilst we are not ultimately responsible for execution of orders, we do have an obligation to take all sufficient steps to obtain the best result for our customers in transmitting orders to our third party broker.

Our primary obligation is to ensure that our customers’ orders are received and transmitted to Alpaca and/or the MMF Manager promptly and fairly. Unless instructed otherwise by the customer or where prevailing market conditions prevent us from doing so, all orders will be transmitted to Alpaca and/or the MMF Manager sequentially and promptly in accordance with our order handling process.

Plum cannot guarantee that the best execution is achieved for each and every trade. Plum’s best execution approach is focused on achieving the best possible results on a consistent basis, and not merely best execution for an individual order.

Orders for execution in US-listed securities on NYSE or NASDAQ are transmitted to Alpaca. Orders for full shares of a security will be executed by Alpaca, as agent, through any of their third party execution brokers or venues they interact with. Orders for fractions of a security will be executed by Alpaca, as principal. Where your order includes both a whole share and fraction of a share, it will be executed in a mixed capacity by Alpaca. Alpaca has a system in place with regards to its fractional shares and listed securities arrangements that aims to ensure that its customers obtain best execution and/or benefits from price improvements.

In all cases, Alpaca commits to execute at the National Best Bid or Offer (“NBBO”) as of the time of your order, for all whole share and fractional share components of a transaction, in line with its best execution objective.

Orders for execution in MMF will take place directly with the MMF Manager.

Under normal market conditions you should expect a market order to be fully executed. Partial order execution may occur in the event there are not enough shares to fill your order or due to unexpected technical reasons in which case the unexecuted part of your stock order will be cancelled.

For stock orders we do not aggregate a customer's orders with those of any other customers. Although, Alpaca may, when it considers it necessary and in our customers’ best interests, aggregate (i.e. combine together) multiple orders. You should be aware that aggregating orders in this way may be to your disadvantage. Because your investment may be bought or sold alongside the shares of other customers, the price obtained may not be the same as if it had been an individual order.

For MMF orders we will be routinely aggregating all client buy orders and all client sell orders, respectively for submission before the cut-off time. The orders to the MMF Manager will be submitted in Plum’s name.

We will carry out transmission of orders as promptly as possible, or as otherwise set out in the relevant terms and conditions, unless the characteristics of the order or prevailing market conditions make this impracticable. In accordance with our processes we will inform customers about any material difficulty relevant to the proper carrying out of orders promptly upon becoming aware of the difficulty.

Plum has various arrangements in place to review, monitor and oversee the standards of execution received by Alpaca or the MMF Manager and their counterparties.

Taking “Sufficient Steps”

In seeking the best possible result for the customers, Plum applies an order handling process that is structured around order initiation, order decision, execution to final settlement.

Plum takes all sufficient steps to achieve the best possible results for its customer by verifying that Plum’s order handling arrangements work well throughout the different stages of the order routing and execution by its selected third party broker and MMF Manager.

Taking all sufficient steps” includes order execution arrangements to ensure intended outcomes can be successfully achieved on an ongoing basis. It includes taking sufficient steps in overseeing that the third-party broker and the MMF Manager that Plum uses for onward routing has the necessary arrangements in place to allow Plum to comply with its Policy, taking into account the execution criteria and execution factors.

Plum has identified a three step process for designing and maintaining an infrastructure design to achieve best execution for its customers.

Design: The design process is an ongoing process involving the continual review of execution arrangements made by Plum to deliver the best possible outcome for its customers and making enhancing arrangements as necessary. Matters relating to the design process are discussed within Plum’s governance arrangements relevant to best execution.

Implementation: The approved execution arrangements are implemented using routing technology and execution partnerships with third-party brokers, MMF managers and direct execution venue connection, as may be relevant. The execution arrangements are then subject to an ongoing review process which is done by ongoing monitoring of execution performance.

Updating: Any issues arising from the ongoing review process and/or monitoring of market structure developments are escalated, discussed and reviewed within Plum’s governance arrangements relevant to best execution.

Our Consideration For Execution Quality

Best execution is the duty that Plum owes the customer to take all sufficient steps to obtain the best possible result when receiving and transmitting orders for execution on the customer's behalf. In doing this we take into consideration the following execution factors:

price
costs
speed
likelihood of execution and settlement
size of the order
nature of the order
any other consideration relevant to the execution of the order when executing an order on behalf of the customer.

The execution factors are considered in light of the execution criteria by assessing their relative weighting in light of elements that could influence the outcome of the execution and therefore the outcome for the customer.

In determining importance given to execution factors Plum will take into account relevant execution criteria and market conditions including (but not limited to):

characteristics of the order (order type);
liquidity in the relevant stock
size of customer order;
the time needed for completing the execution;
availability for price improvement; and
Plums’s fee model and the potential impact on total consideration.

In assessing the execution factors and the weighting of the criteria it is considered that in most instances priority should be given to the execution factor ‘price’ and ‘cost’. In certain circumstances Plum may determine that the speed and likelihood of execution may take precedence over immediate price and cost factors if these other factors are instrumental in delivering the best possible result. This may be the case for example for large customer orders in illiquid shares.

Customer fees and commissions are pre-agreed as per Plum’s fee model. As such, customers are not directly exposed to additional costs during the order handling and execution process. Both ex-ante and ex-post costs are made available to customers, and incidental costs and charges to customers such as implicit transaction costs are made available to customers in confirms and statements, including incidental costs and charges to customers such as implicit transaction.

Monitoring and Oversight

Plum monitors on a regular basis the effectiveness and application of this Policy.

The monitoring of executions and oversight is focused on an overall assessment to determine if the best result was achieved in accordance with this Policy.

Plum will correct any deficiencies identified as part of its monitoring. Plum evaluates the trading execution quality obtained on a periodic ex-ante basis and considers alternative methods designed to improve the execution process.

Generally, Plum's monitoring process will focus on the outcomes that have been achieved for customers and whether these are overall consistently giving customers the best outcome they could have had, given the relevant assessment criteria.

In order to analyse and draw conclusions from monitoring of quality of execution obtained by Alpaca and the MMF Manager, Plum’s monitoring is focused on the overall execution process as well as including identifying executions where trade is executed outside the best bit or offer at the time of the trade or where delays have occurred during the execution process.

The review occurs within Plum's governance arrangements relevant to best execution and includes an overall assessment of whether the execution policies and the arrangements include all sufficient steps that Plum could be taking to achieve best execution of customers' orders.

Consent

Once we have transmitted your orders to Alpaca and/or the MMF Manager, we cannot control when and how the Alpaca and/or the MMF Manager will execute your orders. By opening a Stock Investing Account and/or a Plum MMF Investment Account you are deemed to consent to our Order Handling and Best Interests Policy.

RECURRING INVESTMENT TERMS

These Recurring Buy Transactions Terms & Conditions, along with our General Terms & Conditions, Stock Investing Terms & Conditions and any other documents we provide in relation to our services form a legal agreement between you and Plum.

You can set up a Recurring Buy Transaction to purchase the company stocks you select, at regular intervals in the future, for the market price at the time your order is executed. Once you click “Confirm”, you authorise your Recurring Buy Transaction to repeat indefinitely and as such it’s important that you regularly review your recurring orders. Plum is not obliged to verify the information and details of the Recurring Buy Transactions provided by you, which shall be assumed accurate and complete.

Plum will reverse any transaction where there is suspicion that the order is erroneous or involving (or has a high risk of involvement in) market abuse, money laundering, terrorist financing, fraud or any other type of financial crime. In this instance, Plum will remain under no obligation to allow you to reinstate a buy order at the same price or under the same terms as the canceled transaction and cannot be held liable for any damages or losses caused due to the actions taken by Plum under these terms.
