Nucleus Financial has launched a new model portfolio tool on its wrap platform, which it says will allow their investments to be better aligned to their risk portfolio.
Former clients of the stockbroker firm Pacific Continental Securities UK, which ceased trading in June 2007, may be eligible for compensation of up to £48,000 after the firm was declared to be in default.
