At Fidelity, we are proud of the procedures we have designed to safeguard our investors and their interests. Among other things, we make the following checks to ensure that our funds comply with current regulatory requirements:
computerised daily checks
manual spot-checks every week
monthly peer review meetings at which fund managers examine each others portfolios
In addition to this we ensure that our front and back offices remain completely separate: none of our fund managers are ever allowed to handle share trading or administration for their funds.
These long-established procedures are modelled on Fidelity's practice in the United States, arguably the worlds most strictly regulated market for financial products.
