As obvious as it may seem, this is to be avoided as as it significantly reduces the security of your hard-earned funds. We highly recommend against using Advisers or firms that keep your money in their own bank accounts. Typically, your funds should be held with a custodian in a similar arrangement to a trust with you (the client) as beneficiary. This means that should the firm you are dealing with (either the Adviser firm or custodian investment firm) cease trading, <strong>your funds remain yours.<\/strong><\/p><p>Patterson Mills will\u00a0<strong>not<\/strong> handle any client money and this ensures our clients benefit from enhanced security and further peace of mind.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3ab9324 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3ab9324\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">7.
