The Client Assets Sourcebook (CASS) outlines a firm's duty to separate its assets from a client's and safeguard these assets. CASS rules cover client money and client assets.
Client money and client assets (also known as safe custody assets) are held or received by a firm in connection with its investment business. Client money refers to money for investments, while client assets are non-cash assets.
Our CASS for Client Money and Client Assets Course explains the FCA's rules for administering these client assets with a focus on custody and client money rules.
Available as part of our FCA Compliance Library.
