Investment administration from Adam & Company
However complex an investment, its administration must be simple, flexible and efficient.
We have arranged comprehensive competitively-priced investment administration, settlement and custody services for our clients with an independent but proven provider, Adam & Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Royal Bank of Scotland.
Adam’s highly-experienced staff arranges settlement of all transactions executed by GBIM with counterparties in UK or overseas; nominee custody services; income collection and investment reporting.
Assets are generally held in custody within Adam & Co.’s nominee company; however, unlisted assets can often be shown on a memorandum basis and reflected in valuations. Cash deposits and cash awaiting investment are held in the client's interest-bearing account at Adam, which has a full banking licence. All assets are ring-fenced. Portfolios within ISAs, SIPPs and other vehicles including trusts, charities and investment companies can all be handled by Adam. They also provide end of year tax summaries.
For those clients who wish to keep their investments offshore, we can arrange for investment administration, custody and banking services to be provided by Adam & Company International in Guernsey.
