Regulation
Invesco's Wealth Management services are regulated by the Central
Bank of Ireland and are covered by the terms of its various
protections. Only some of Invesco's pension consultancy and
administration services are regulated in this way. These include
the insurance mediation services that Invesco provides to pension
scheme trustees in respect of insuring their schemes' death in
service benefits and to sponsoring employers in relation to
securing cover under their disability arrangements. Also included
are the services involving the receipt and transmission of orders
in investment instruments provided in the context of administering
defined contribution pension schemes and the advice to scheme
trustees in relation to selecting fund managers. The provision of
the balance of Invesco's pension consultancy and administration
services do not require licensing, authorisation or registration
with the Central Bank of Ireland and as a result, are not covered
by its requirements designed to protect consumers or by a statutory
compensation scheme. However, it should be noted in this
regard that occupational pension schemes and larger corporate
entities are specifically excluded from entitlement to claim from
the Investor Compensation Fund. Invesco provides the same high
standard of care to all of its clients.
