Conflicts Elm Capital has implemented a number of procedures and controls to detect conflict situations as they arise. Once conflicts have been identified, further procedures and controls monitor the effectiveness of the management arrangements of such conflicts. Where a potential conflict is identified, Elm Capital seeks to organise its business activities in a manner that prevents the crystalisation of the conflict. This will include the appropriate segregation of functions and business lines such that a level of independence may be achieved and may involve, inter alia: Information barriers to prevent or control the exchange of information between employees engaged in activities involving a risk of conflict of interest where the exchange of that information may harm the interests of one or more clients. Functional independence and separate supervision of relevant employees whose main functions involve carrying out activities or providing services for clients whose interests may conflict, or otherwise represent interests that may conflict. A review of remuneration arrangements where these might give rise to conflicts of interest in relation to the activities or services provided by the relevant employees. Reassignment of employees to prevent or control the simultaneous or sequential involvement of relevant employees in separate services or activities where such involvement may impair the proper management of conflicts of interest. Policies and procedures covering Inducements, PA dealing and external interests. However, it is accepted that, despite the implementation of all appropriate controls to prevent the occurrence, the complete avoidance of all conflicts may not be feasible in a commercial environment. Where conflicts are unavoidable, Elm Capital takes appropriate measures to mitigate and manage such conflicts in a manner that seeks to ensure that it and its personnel are not advantaged and that no client is adversely effected. Our clients’ best interests remain paramount. Gifts and inducements Elm Capital is subject to anti-corruption and bribery rules including the UK Bribery Act and the US Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Any gift, hospitality, fee or other benefit that we offer or are offered will be considered in accordance with UK best practice relating to anti-bribery and corruption and the guidance issued by the Ministry of Justice. This covers fees and benefits to and from clients as well as third parties. As a MiFID investment firm, we are also subject to the FCA rules on inducements, which apply to any fee or other benefit that we receive from or provide to a third party in relation to regulated activities that we perform. We will only offer or accept third party fees or benefits where it is necessary to do so for conducting regulated business or where we consider that it would enhance the service that we provide to our client(s) and does not affect our ability always to act in the best interest of our client(s). Complaints Upon receiving a complaint, we will provide prompt written acknowledgement that the complaint has been received and is being investigated. If the complaint was made verbally, we will confirm our understanding of the complaint in the acknowledgement. During our investigation we will thoroughly review all relevant records and speak objectively with any relevant parties involved in the matter. We will keep complainants regularly informed of our progress and of the measures we are taking to resolve the complaint. We will further endeavour to handle the complaint independently and impartially and communicate in a clear and fair manner at all times. We may enlist the assistance of third party (compliance) consultants/legal advisors during this part of the process. After full consideration of the matter, we will provide the complainant with a final response letter which will set out our understanding of the complaint, the issues raised, the investigation we conducted and the outcome of the investigation. We will also detail any remedial action and/or redress we believe appropriate or the reasons for declining remedial action and/or redress. We will keep a record of all complaints received and the measures taken for their resolution. Please note that we have assessed the clients we provide MiFID business to and deem that we do not have any eligible complainants.
