You wish to make your own decisions
Farley & Thompson’s Custody Plus is an execution only trading service for investors who have a clear understanding and knowledge of the stock market and the actions they wish to take on their investments.

Whether you are looking to actively buy and sell shares, or would like to use us as a custodian to ease the administrative burden of your portfolio, our experienced team is here to help.

How does it work?

Custody Plus provides a simple and secure way for you to hold your investments and undertake dealing transactions.
All securities will be registered in our nominee, which means your investments and cash are held in trust and safeguarded for you. We will collect all dividends on your behalf and you can choose to receive these as a regular income. We will also inform you if there are any corporate actions on your shareholdings.
When you are ready to make an investment, our experienced dealers will be on hand during market hours to execute your trades, including in UK equities, fixed-interest securities and collective investment funds.

Is it for me?

This service may be of interest if you currently hold share certificates, or a mixture of certificates and electronic holdings, and you are looking for a one-stop alternative.

It may also be of interest if you have received shares as part of a stock exchange listing or from a former employer’s corporate share-save scheme.

We only act on your instructions and will not provide any advice about your investments or whether they are suitable for you.
