Role Definition

Definitions for investor types


Advisers are professional investors who are authorised by relevant regulators to provide their clients with investment and/or pension advice.
 

Asset or Wealth Managers are financial planners, investment portfolio managers and other professional investors.
 

The 'Institutional' site is for pension schemes, consultants or other professional investors.
 

The 'Global Liquidity' site is for professional investors who are looking for liquidity investment opportunities.
 

Personal investors (also known as 'retail clients') are client organisations or individuals who cannot meet both (i) one or more of the professional client criteria laid down in Annex II to the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (Directive 2004/39/EC), and (ii) one or more of the qualified investor criteria set out in Article 2 of the Prospectus Directive (Directive 2003/71/EC).
 

The personal investor category gives investors the greatest level of protection under the regulations and ensures investors get full information about any products they invest in.
 

If you are a retail investor but would like to be categorised as a professional investor, you should know that this is allowed but it would mean:
 

  • You could receive less information about our investments products and services; and

  • you wouldn't be entitled to receive a suitability report or appropriateness assessment in cases where they would be required for personal investors.


If you are a professional investor (also known as a 'professional client') but would like to be categorised as a personal investor, this is allowed but it doesn't necessarily mean you can refer any complaints to the Financial Ombudsman Service and you may not be eligible for compensation under the Financial Services Compensation Scheme.
 

Professional investors (also known as 'professional clients')


The definition of a professional client comes from the MiFID directive which provides definitions for professional and retail clients as well as eligible counterparties.
 

MiFID adopts two main categories of client: retail and professional. There is a separate and distinct third category for a limited range of business: eligible counterparty (ECP) has the lowest level of protection under MiFID.
 

Professional clients are those who may be deemed to possess the experience, knowledge and expertise to make their own investment decisions and properly assess the risks associated thereto. The list below taken from the official Journal of the European Union (L 145/44 EN Official Journal of the European Union 30.4.2004) should be understood as including all authorised entities carrying out the characteristic activities of the entities mentioned: entities authorised by a Member State under a Directive, entities authorized or regulated by a Member State without reference to a Directive, and entities authorised or regulated by a non-Member State:
 

  • Credit institutions

  • Investment firms

  • Other authorised or regulated financial institutions

  • Insurance companies

  • Collective investment schemes and management companies of such schemes

  • Pension funds and management companies of such funds

  • Commodity and commodity derivatives dealers

  • Locals

  • Other institutional investors

  • Large undertakings meeting two of the following size requirements on a company basis:
    • balance sheet total: EUR 20 000 000
    • net turnover: EUR 40 000 000
    • own funds: EUR 2 000 000
       
  • National and regional governments, public bodies that manage public debt, central banks, international and supranational institutions such as the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the European Central Bank (ECB), the European Investment Bank (EIB) and other similar international organisations

  • Other institutional investors whose main activity is to invest in financial instruments, including entities dedicated to the securitisation of assets or other financing transactions


Please note that the above summary is provided for information purposes only. If you are uncertain as to whether you can be classified both as a professional client under the Markets in Financial Instruments Directive and classed as a qualified investor under the Prospectus Directive then you should seek independent advice.

Scams and fraud

Be aware – scams and fraud

We are aware of a number of scams and attempted frauds through phone calls and emails claiming to be from a representative of J.P. Morgan offering an investment opportunity. If you have concerns about an approach, please contact us.

Some investors and potential investors may be contacted by people who claim to be from J.P. Morgan Asset Management and who try to persuade you to invest with them. They may offer you advice over the telephone, request payment from you, or they may email you links to bogus websites.

The products they may try and sell you might even have official sounding names like a J.P. Morgan Gold Fund (we have no funds by this name). You can check our Fund Explorer for our complete list of authorised funds.

When investors are called or emailed and pressure is put on them to buy a product or invest their money, this is often known as a boiler room scam. The approach may be gentle, the caller may be very friendly and reassuring, or they may take a more urgent tone, encouraging you to buy in quickly otherwise you could lose money.

These scams happen from time to time so it is best to be vigilant.

If you do receive a call from a J.P. Morgan representative (we sometimes call for service purposes) and you have concerns as to their identity, then please end the call and call us on 0800 20 40 20. We will then go through security and verification questions before proceeding.

For further information on staying safe online:

  • NIDirect Government Services website.

  • You can also call the Financial Conduct Authority Consumer Helpline on 0800 111 6768.

A helpful anti-fraud checklist

Be vigilant when:

  • Someone calls or emails you with an ‘unbelievable’ offer.

  • You are asked to provide personal information by replying to an email or asked to click through a link to a fake website.

  • You receive an email where the grammar, spelling or punctuation is poor.

  • The source of an email is uncertain or when a company name is slightly misspelled.

Never provide personal details including passwords or answers to your security questions in response to an email. We will never ask you for this type of information via email.

If in doubt about a contact, get in touch with us immediately on 0800 20 40 20 or +44 1268 44 44 70 from overseas. Our lines are open Monday to Friday 9.00am to 5.30pm. It’s always better to be safe and our priority is that our investors feel secure when they deal with us.
