I'm guessing that many people here have investments/pensions etc held by the likes of Hargreaves Lansdown or that type of organisation. Whilst it's accepted that equities can go down as well as up, are there any protections from the fund supermarket its self going bust.? I'm assuming that most or even all keep *our* money and investments ring fenced from their own assets. Is that a safe assumption or do some do this and others don't?
What's confused me is that there is an FSCS scheme but it's only £50K *as opposed to £75k (shortly to rise to £85k?) for banks.
