The 20 questions new clients most commonly raise — answered briefly and precisely. No marketing prose, no cross-references to external pages.
£200 minimum deposit. There is no difference in fees or model access between smaller and larger accounts — the 0.72% flat rate applies identically across all balances.
Through FCA-authorised Tier-1 brokers in the UK and EU, with direct market access. Uvistium never holds client funds directly — all investments sit in a segregated account held in your name at the broker.
0.72% per annum as a single flat fee. No performance charges, no hidden costs, no Faster Payments or BACS deposit or withdrawal fees. Broker spreads are market-standard and not marked up by us.
We partner with FCA-authorised broker firms. Client funds are protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) up to £85,000 per client, per authorised institution. For balances above that, we split placements across multiple broker partners.
Withdrawal requests are processed the same working day if received before 3:00 pm London time. Faster Payments typically arrive within hours; BACS within one working day. No lock-up window, no small print.
Faster Payments (free, near-instant), BACS (free, 1 working day), CHAPS (bank fee applies, same day for large amounts), SEPA from Eurozone (free, 1 working day), debit card Visa/Mastercard (instant, 1% broker fee).
Every account is assigned a named adviser. You receive their direct line and email in the welcome message. Larger accounts (from £50,000) additionally receive a senior adviser.
A monthly memo (8–12 pages) that maps every return contribution on your account to within 0.01% — to a specific model decision, sector, or individual position. You see precisely where every movement came from.
Uvistium is not a tax adviser. Your broker partners issue annual tax certificates suitable for filing UK self-assessment or ISA claims. Capital gains above the annual CGT allowance (£3,000 for 2026/27) are your responsibility to declare. We recommend consulting a chartered tax adviser for material portfolios.
Your investments do not sit with Uvistium — they sit with the broker partners in your name. If Uvistium Ltd were to enter insolvency, your positions remain unaffected. You would receive direct access to your broker account and could hold or sell positions.
Our platform runs across two geographically separated Tier-3 data centres in London and Manchester with automatic failover. Recovery time objective: 4 hours. During outages, positions are held safely — no uncontrolled execution.
Fully compliant with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018. Your data is used solely to deliver our service, never sold. You retain the right to access, rectify, erase, and port your data at any time — see the privacy notice.
Yes, within predefined limits. You can set the risk profile, maximum crypto allocation, and sector exclusions. The models operate within those constraints. Manual opening of individual positions is not available — that would undermine algorithmic discipline.
On average, 12 trades per week on a typical account. Holding period typically 4 hours to 15 days. No high-frequency strategies.
No. Nobody credible can promise that. Past losses are past losses — we focus on generating risk-adjusted returns going forward. Be wary of any provider promising "loss recovery" — this is almost always a scam.
Uvistium partners with MiFID-compliant broker firms. Your executions occur under best-execution principles; ex-post reports are made available quarterly by your broker.
Yes. The account is held in your name at the broker and may be inherited under English or Scots law (per your residency). We recommend including access details and your Uvistium contact in your estate planning.
Self-financed through platform fees and by institutional shareholders (details visible in Companies House filings). No venture debt, no need for aggressive growth at any cost.
You may close your account at any time without notice period. Withdrawal of the full balance within one working day of order closure. Complaints are first handled internally; if unresolved, you may refer the matter to the Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS).
Please do not — not immediately. Verify our Companies House registration, the FCA authorisation status of our broker partners, our ISO 27001 and SOC 2 certifications. Speak with an adviser before depositing. Start with the £200 minimum. Judge us after the first attribution memo.
