Risk warning
The value of investments, and the income arising from them, can go down as well as up, and is not guaranteed, which means that you may not get back what you invested. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. Changes in exchange rates may also cause an investment to fluctuate in value. Levels of taxation depend on your individual circumstances and the value of any tax reliefs which apply.
Please note that we are not tax advisers and the any guidance given is based upon our understanding of current tax rules and practices. We recommend that you seek appropriate professional advice to gain certainty in the tax arena.
Whilst every effort has been made to ensure that the information we publish online is correct, the directors of Bordier & Cie (UK) PLC can take no responsibility for any action taken (or not taken) as a result of the matters discussed within it.

Minor non-monetary benefits disclosure
Bordier UK may provide or receive minor non-monetary benefits to or from third parties (including other companies in the Bordier Group) as permitted under applicable law. The receipt of such benefits enhance the overall quality of Bordier UK’s services and will not compromise our duty to act in the best interests of our clients at all times.
Bordier UK adheres to a Gifts and Hospitality Policy, which establishes the minimum standards to be maintained when giving and receiving gifts and/or the provision or acceptance of business entertainment and corporate events, particularly when the other party is a provider of investment products or services.
Such minor non-monetary benefits may include, but are not limited to:
- information or documentation relating to a financial instrument or an investment service, that is generic in nature or personalised to reflect the circumstances of an individual client (items such as product literature, freepost envelopes, articles, news items or financial promotions);
- written material from a third party that is commissioned and paid for by them, provided that commissioning is clearly disclosed in the material and that the material is made available at the same time to any firms wishing to receive it, or to the general public;
- non-substantive material or services consisting of short term market commentary on the latest economic statistics or company results or information on upcoming releases or events;
- quotations and/or projections relating to investment products, advice on the completion of forms or documents, access to electronic dealing or quotation systems and software that gives information about investment products;
- participation in conferences, seminars and other training events on the benefits and features of a specific financial instrument or an investment service;
- hospitality of a reasonable de minimis value, such as food and drink during a business meeting or a conference, seminar or other training event; and
- other minor benefits that are capable of enhancing the quality of the service provided to clients and do not impair the firm’s duty to act in the best interests of the client.
