ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The safeguarding method determines how customer funds are protected in the event of Revolut's insolvency, and defines the nature of that protection as distinct from FSCS deposit insurance.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Readers can expect their funds to be held in dedicated client money bank accounts or in regulator-approved low-risk assets rather than commingled with Revolut's own money.
