Important information for U.K. investors

Your account will be domiciled in the U.S. and your account agreement will be with our affiliate, the U.S.-based broker-dealer Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. (CS&Co). Charles Schwab, U.K., Limited ("Schwab U.K.") informs and helps clients access the services provided by CS&Co. Your relationship with Schwab U.K. and the services it provides are explained in the Charles Schwab, U.K., Limited Client Agreement.

Your relationship with Schwab U.K. and the services it provides are explained in the Charles Schwab, U.K., Limited Client Agreement.

All accounts are opened and held at CS&Co. This means you will be protected by best execution rules in the U.S. and not those in the U.K. CS&Co. receives payment for order flow for client orders it routes to U.S. liquidity providers and certain exchanges. In particular it receives rebates from them based upon the order flow executed at each destination. For more information about CS&Co.'s order routing and best execution practices, see order routing. Payment for order flow creates a conflict of interest and under U.K. rules would be considered an inducement and contrary to best execution. Schwab U.K. does not receive any remuneration from CS&Co. related to payment for order flow.

Because your account is or will be held by CS&Co. in the U.S., the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) in the U.K. will not apply to your account in the event of loss of cash and securities. Instead, Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) coverage in the U.S. will apply. For more information about asset protection and SIPC coverage at CS&Co., please visit Account Protection.
