- without agreeing to the terms of a Financial Product by the next Day following actual receipt of the deposit; or
- without Trade Republica issuing the Financial Product immediately; or
- that is less than the price of the Financial Product, and Trade Republica does not issue the Financial Product immediately for the lesser price; or
- in excess of the price of the Financial Product, and the excess amount is not returned to the Client by the next Day.
Such segregation of the Client’s money does not fully protect the Client’s money from the risk of loss.
While the Client’s money is segregated from Trade Republica’s money, it may be co mingled with the money of other Clients and utilised by Trade Republica from time to time where Trade Republica is allowed to do so pursuant to Law.
47. Trade Republica shall be entitled to retain any interest earned on such segregated money held or invested by Trade Republica may use the funds in the client segregated account in accordance with applicable Laws.

The Client acknowledges that the balance of the Client’s account may not be protected if there is a default in the dealings with counterparties or in the overall segregated account balance.
49. Trade Republica enters into arrangements with Third‐Party execution providers for the facilitation of transactions and settlements, and avails monies received for Deposits and settlements which are not client money to such providers for this purpose.
50. When Trade Republica accepts money from a Client in connection with an Order, a Margin Call or a Deposit, the Client immediately receives reciprocal obligations from Trade Republica. The payment is not “client money”, but rather has purchased that reciprocal obligation from Trade Republica.

53. Following month‐end, Trade Republica will produce an electronic version of the Client’s trading statement which will be emailed to the Client and be available on the Trade Republica Trading Platform. This will provide the same details as the daily statements but cover all account movements and transactions opened for the month.
54. The Client is responsible for promptly checking all contents of Confirmations and the Daily and Monthly Statements. The client must immediately notify Trade Republica if there is an error in the Confirmation or the Statements.
