Discretionary Portfolio Management. We may suggest to you that responsibility for the management of your investments should be delegated to an external portfolio manager operating on a discretionary basis, that is to say pursuing an agreed objective based on an agreed time span and an agreed level of risk with you, but not seeking your instructions before making changes to the portfolio. In this situation we will liaise between you and the discretionary manager and will ensure that regular reports are produced. It is important to make you aware we will not be responsible for the consequences of any acts or omissions on the part of the discretionary manager. Conflicts of Interest We offer whole of market advice, but occasions may arise where the Network, this company or any of its Directors or employees or one of our other clients has some form of interest in business which we are transacting for you. If this happens or we become aware that our interest or those of one of our other clients conflicts with your interests we will inform you in writing and obtain consent before we carry out the instructions. This undertaking shall not apply to personal holdings in unit trusts, insurance contracts, gilts and shares of publicly quoted companies. Network Direct Limited has in place procedures to identify and manage conflicts of interest. Where conflicts of interest arise, these are managed through policies and procedures believed to be appropriate to ensure that such transactions are effected on normal commercial terms negotiated at arm’s length and on terms which are not materially less favourable to the client than if the potential conflict had not existed; shall ensure that such transactions do not adversely affect the performance of the company’s duties and responsibilities to the client; and shall take reasonable steps to ensure fair treatment for the client in accordance with the requirements of the FCA. Material Changes In accepting this client service agreement, you agree that we may change the future content without receiving your prior consent to do so, but we will not conduct any investment business for you following any change unless we have given you at least 10 business days notice, unless it is impractical to do so. The benefit of this Agreement, together with any rights and obligations arising hereunder, may be assigned, transferred, disposed of or charged by Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Limited Client’s Best Interests We require our clients to give us instructions in writing. We will accept oral instructions at our discretion, which must be confirmed in writing. We can refuse your instructions at our discretion. We maintain professional indemnity insurance to enable us to meet any liability that may arise in respect of our obligations to you for services performed on your behalf.
