Notes

What is changing in the rules, and what it means for you

Short, practical write-ups on the rules that affect retail investors in the UK, no legal jargon and no hype.

How to read the notes below

Written for people starting out

Every note here assumes no background in markets. Where a term can't be avoided it is explained the first time it appears, and where a rule differs by country that difference is stated plainly.

What you will not find here

No price predictions and no signals. A guaranteed return is the clearest warning sign in this industry, and we are not going to reproduce it.

How often notes are updated

Notes are revisited whenever the underlying rules change: a new regulation, a new reporting requirement, a shift in how deposits are handled. The date on each note is when it was last checked, not when it was first written.
