Scams and fraud

Keeping you safe

Covid-19 has triggered a worldwide increase in cyber-crime, with criminals becoming ever more sophisticated in their methods. Brand cloning, whereby criminals "clone" investment instruments and market them to unsuspecting consumers has become more prevalent.

As part of the Schroders group, we are able to leverage a wide range of resources to help protect our clients from falling victim to such scams.

Recently, individuals claiming to represent Schroders have been promoting  fraudulent Bond and ISA investments.

If you receive an unsolicited approach using the Schroders name, please report it as soon as possible directly to Schroders via their website by clicking on the link below.
