TRUST AND COMPLIANCE

FCA authorised - protecting your reputation, your clients' money and your compliance 

We believe compliance and security are not hurdles PE and VC firms should have to carry. They are the weight Caxton chooses to bear on your behalf. Our compliance framework is built into every product from the ground up.

Our compliance framework
FOUNDED ON EXPERTISE, SERVICE AND TRUST

For 25 years we have earned trust through action, not badges 

Capital markets transactions are where reputations are made and lost. We have spent 25 years building the team, the infrastructure and the compliance capability to make sure that when you instruct Caxton, you never have to think about the payment side again. 

A dedicated relationship manager for every client

Every client has a dedicated UK-based relationship manager reachable by phone or email -someone who knows your firm and is there when it matters most.

We carry the compliance burden so you don't have to

AML, KYC, KYB, FCA regulation - we run the checks, carry the responsibility and make sure every counterparty is verified before completion day.

You always know exactly where the funds are

Real-time visibility over every payment instruction, fund balance and completion status. No chasing. No uncertainty. You know what is happening at every stage of the transaction.

When completion lands late, your payments still go out the same day

We stay fully hands-on through the final mile - rechecking instructions, monitoring confirmations, staying in constant contact. When the green light is given, payments move immediately. Every time.

Your clients' money is always secure, separate and protected

Funds held in dedicated safeguarded accounts with tier-one banking partners - completely separate from Caxton's own funds and protected 24/7 by our anti-fraud specialists until you instruct release.

You are working with a partner, not a provider

95% of our clients return year after year. The firms that choose Caxton once tend to choose Caxton every time — because when a transaction is live, we behave like an extension of your team, not a third party.

CLIENT STORIES

The firm behind the firms

Why 95% of our corporate clients come back every year.

“We instructed Caxton as paying agent having heard strong things about their reputation. They more than lived up to it. Shareholders were onboarded without friction, compliance was thorough but efficient and the team remained hands-on and went over and above for us - right through to completion. Exactly what you need on a deal where timing is everything”

They handled onboarding, compliance and payment execution with a precision that gave us complete confidence. When the green light was given, funds moved immediately.”
