Cash Management

We treat cash as an asset class in its own right, just like equities, bonds, property or bullion.

Cash can be part of an overall investment strategy or the whole investment strategy, depending on your objectives and risk preferences.

We manage cash portfolios denominated in sterling and US dollars.

We believe a well-diversified cash portfolio consisting of high quality banking names can deliver the combination of security and liquidity that you, as our clients, need.

What are the benefits of using a cash management service?

  • Diversification and risk control – ensuring your cash exposure is spread over a number of institutions and therefore spreading your counterparty risk
  • Easy administration – quick and easy account opening
  • Consistent and proven track record in cash management
  • Access to institutional cash rates and bespoke portfolio services
  • Dedicated cash management team based in the Channel Islands
