Deposit Guarantee protection
The deposits placed with the bank or building society via Akoni, as a Deposit Aggregator, are covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme, which is the UK’s deposit guarantee scheme. This means your eligible deposits are protected up to a total of £85,000 per authorised entity. If your total deposits within the same institution are above that limit, they are unlikely to be covered i.e. if you have money in multiple accounts with the same bank or with banks that are part of the same banking group (and share a banking license) the FSCS treat them as one bank. This means the FSCS compensation limit of £85,000 applies to the total amount you hold across all these accounts, not each separate account.
FSCS protections are limited to “Eligible Claimants” as per the FCA definitions. For more information, please visit https://www.fscs.org.uk or watch “How FSCS protects your money”.
Please also note that the FSCS will pay these claims as soon as possible, and always within three months, in the event that the bank or building society fails. More information on this can be found at https://www.fscs.org.uk/what-we-cover/banks-building-societies/.
