Information · Body

Non-Regulated Activity Scope

DC-SERVICES provides administrative and technical support that falls outside the perimeter of 'regulated activities' as defined by the Regulated Activities Order (RAO). Our core functions involve the creation of structured documentation and the provision of supervisory quality assurance. We do not provide investment advice, nor do we facilitate transactions in regulated financial instruments. This distinction is critical for our clients’ compliance teams, as it ensures that our records and intelligence reports are delivered from a purely functional and objective perspective, free from the regulatory requirements of an investment firm.

Internal Governance Standards

While we operate as a non-regulated entity, our internal controls are modelled after institutional governance best practices. This includes a clear hierarchy of accountability, periodic internal audits of our data handling procedures, and a strict code of conduct for all personnel. We implement these high standards to ensure that our operational risk intelligence meets the scrutiny of our clients' internal auditors and external regulators. Our governance framework prioritises the integrity of information, ensuring that every record produced by DC-SERVICES is verified according to our internal quality metadata standards.

Regulatory Compliance Transparency

Transparency is a cornerstone of our regulatory structure. We provide institutional clients and their advisers with comprehensive information regarding our legal standing to facilitate their own due diligence processes. As part of our commitment to regulatory clarity, we maintain an open dialogue with legal counsel to ensure our service offerings do not inadvertently cross into regulated territory. This proactive stance protects both DC-SERVICES and its clients, ensuring that the documentation we provide is viewed correctly as an administrative tool rather than a regulated financial service.

Explicit Service Boundaries

It is essential for transparency that all stakeholders understand what DC-SERVICES does not do. We are not a bank, an exchange, a broker-dealer, or a legal practice. We do not engage in market making or provide liquidity. Our role is strictly limited to the 'back-office' function of structured record generation and operational intelligence analysis. By maintaining these rigid boundaries, we avoid the conflicts of interest and capital requirements associated with financial intermediation. This specialisation allows us to focus exclusively on the accuracy and structural integrity of institutional digital-asset documentation.

Information · Questions and answers

Questions clients ask about this page.

Short, factual answers stated in the same wording the firm uses in every scope letter, supervisory record and rejection-register entry.

Q01

What does Regulatory Structure cover at DC-SERVICES UK?

Institutional regulatory structure sits inside DC-SERVICES — Digital Claims Services Limited released under named UK supervision and sealed archival retention.

Q02

Does Digital Claims Services Limited hold client assets or execute transactions?

No. DC-SERVICES UK is non-custodial. The firm does not take possession of client assets, does not place trades, does not act as a fund administrator and does not move funds on behalf of any party.

Q03

Does DC-SERVICES UK provide investment, tax or legal advice?

No. The firm produces structured documentation only. Investment, tax and legal advice fall outside the permitted activities and are not offered on any page of this site.

Q04

Who signs off the work that is released?

Every record passes a two-stage supervisory signoff. Stage one verifies internal consistency and source coverage; stage two, performed by a named senior reviewer outside the originating team, confirms release readiness. Released records are sealed into the archive; any rework is logged in the rejection register and re-entered into stage one.

Q05

How are conflicts and independence handled before an engagement starts?

Each engagement begins with a written scope letter, a conflicts register check and an independence screen. Records that fail any check are not released externally; the failure is logged in the rejection register with a reason code.
