Which legal entity operates the service
Albion Capitholm is a trading name used by the company that owns and operates this website and the associated client platform.
The company that operates the service is the party you establish a contractual relationship with upon accepting our Terms of Use and open an account. Its full registered name, its legal form, its registered particulars and the identity of the group it belongs to are set out in the client agreement you receive at onboarding, and are supplied on request through the routes described in the "Requesting documentation" section below.
Because corporate structures, registered particulars and service arrangements can change, we deliberately do not restate them as fixed text on a marketing page. The client agreement and the documentation pack we send you are the authoritative source; where this page and those documents differ, the documents prevail.
Group companies and service providers
Certain functions - technology hosting, payment processing, market data, customer identification tools - are carried out by specialist third-party providers under written agreements. The categories of provider we use, and the way your personal data is handled by them, are described in our Privacy Policy. We do not publish provider names on this page.
Requesting corporate and compliance materials
Customers, potential customers and institutional partners are able to request our corporate and compliance materials. Distribution occurs upon individual request rather than through public posting.
What can be requested
- Details identifying the operating entity and its registered information.
- The active client agreement alongside the fee schedule specific to your account.
- An outline of our anti-money laundering and customer verification protocols.
- Information regarding the handling process for grievances and the path for further review.
- Data-protection information relating to your own personal data.
How to make the request
- 01
Write to us
Use the contact route on our contact page. Put "Regulatory documentation request" in the subject line.
- 02
Identify yourself
State whether you are an existing client (and give the email address on the account) or a prospective client, and which documents you need.
- 03
Receive the pack
Submitted requests receive replies within the designated window specified upon receipt confirmation. Certain materials may be supplied in summary format where they include protected proprietary information.
Documents are sent to the verified contact details on file. We cannot send account-specific documentation to a third party without your written authorisation.
The regulatory framework we work within
We describe here the type of obligations that govern the service, rather than naming authorities or quoting reference numbers, which belong in the formal documentation.
- 01
Client identification
Every account is verified before funding, trading or withdrawal, in line with the KYC and AML controls described on our KYC & AML page.
- 02
Financial-crime prevention
Sanctions and risk screening, ongoing transaction monitoring, internal escalation procedures and record retention for the periods required by applicable law.
- 03
Handling of client money
Client balances are recorded separately from the operating funds of the business, and payouts are returned to a verified instrument in the client's own name.
- 04
Fair and clear communication
Account statements display pricing, spreads and applicable charges. We offer no guarantees regarding specific performance, and promotional content must include appropriate risk disclosures.
- 05
Data protection
Personal data is processed on a defined lawful basis, retained only as long as necessary, and protected by access controls and encryption in transit and at rest.
- 06
Complaints handling
A documented internal resolution process including acknowledgement of receipt, thorough assessment and a detailed response delivered within the specified timeframe from when your complaint is submitted.
In cases where a jurisdiction establishes more demanding local standards than outlined above, such heightened standards will govern for clients located in that jurisdiction.
Regulatory and compliance questions
Questions about our regulatory position, our compliance procedures, or a concern you would like escalated should go to the compliance route rather than to general support.
How do I raise a compliance question?
Send it through the contact page and mark it "Compliance". Include the account email address if you already hold an account, and describe the question in a sentence or two.
How do I make a formal complaint?
Direct your message to the same contact point with the subject line "Complaint". You will obtain a receipt notification, case identifier and notification regarding response timing. Should you remain unsatisfied, the response will provide details on additional recourse pathways.
What is the procedure for reporting illicit behavior or misuse of our name?
Access the abuse reporting tool. Cases involving misrepresentation of Albion Capitholm through communications, promotional material or counterfeit platforms must be submitted through this channel for our prompt intervention.
Are institutional or press enquiries handled here?
Yes - send them through the contact page with a clear subject line and they will be routed to the right team.
What Albion Capitholm is not
Being clear about what we do not do is as important as describing what we do.

Capital is at risk. The value of investments can fall as well as rise and you may receive back less than you put in. Please read the Risk Disclosure before you decide to use the service.
Jurisdictions served and excluded
The service is offered only where we are permitted to offer it. Availability is assessed at registration on the basis of your country of residence, and it can change.
Where the service is offered
Accounts may be opened by residents of the countries listed as eligible in the registration flow of your account. If your country appears in that list and you pass verification, you can proceed. If it does not appear, the service is not available to you.
Where the service is not offered
- Nations and geographic zones subject to relevant international restrictions, sanctions or trade limitations.
- Jurisdictions where the authorization required to offer this service category to retail customers is not in our possession.
- Jurisdictions classified as elevated-risk for money laundering or financial crime activities under current regulatory frameworks.
- Any territory we have chosen to exclude for internal risk reasons.
No solicitation
Nothing on this website is directed at, or intended for distribution to or use by, any person in a jurisdiction where such distribution or use would be contrary to local law. Accessing this site from an excluded jurisdiction does not create a right to use the service. If you move to an excluded jurisdiction while holding an account, tell us - the account may need to be restricted or closed and any balance returned to you.
