===[[Client money]]===
The FCA’s client money rules are designed to minimise credit exposure to firms which hold client funds, but who are not authorised to hold client deposits themselves (in otherwords, are not regulated banks). Such firms must deposit client funds with an {{cassprov|approved bank}} which record the deposits in the firm’s name but belonging to the firm’s clients, so it is clear that the firm has no proprietary claim on the account.
