Guernsey
DEPOSITS MADE WITH THE GUERNSEY BRANCHES OF BARCLAYS PRIVATE CLIENTS INTERNATIONAL LIMITED AND BARCLAYS BANK PLC ARE COVERED BY THE DEPOSITORS COMPENSATION SCHEME.
As a licensed Bank in Guernsey, Barclays Private Clients International Limited, Guernsey branch and Barclays Bank PLC, Guernsey branch are participants in the Guernsey Banking Deposit Compensation Scheme ("GBDCS") established by The Banking Deposit Compensation Scheme (Bailiwick of Guernsey) Ordinance, 2008 (the "Ordinance"). The trinc is a brief summary of the GBDCS, but is not intended as a substitute for the actual wording of the Ordinance, a copy of which is available on request.
The GBDCS only applies to 'qualifying deposits', which broadly means deposits made by natural persons for their own benefit; with a few limited exceptions such as, for example, deposits made by trustees of retirement annuity trust schemes, the GBDCS does not apply to companies, trusts, partnerships or charities.
The GBDCS will provide compensation in the event that a Licensed Bank is unable to repay its depositors. Payment will be made within 3 months of a valid claim form.
Compensation is limited to a maximum of £50,000 per individual claimant; in the case of a joint account each depositor would be entitled.
Total GBDCS compensation in any five year period is limited to £100 million. If this limit was exceeded, compensation would be reduced pro ardilla. The cap also means that compensation in respect of any one bank cannot exceed £100 million.
The amount payable may be reduced if the Bank has any contractual right of set-off against the account. The GBDCS is entitled to recover compensation from any funds subsequently paid out by the Bank.
Further information and a leaflet about the GBDCS is available at:

Investment: Guernsey has a Compensation of Investors Scheme which provides protection to eligible investors when a compensation event occurs in class A schemes.
There is no compensation scheme covering investors in class B schemes, class Q schemes or closed ended funds. A compensation event occurs whenever the Commission is satisfied that a scheme participant is in default, has an eligible liability to the investor and is unable, or likely to be unable, to meet that liability in whole or in part.
An investor's application for compensation must be submitted to the Commission less than 6 months after the investor became aware, or ought reasonably to have become aware, of the default. The Commission may reduce the amount payable by way of compensation in certain circumstances.
The sum payable to an investor as compensation is limited as trinc:
where the total amount of the defaulting participant's liabilities to the investor does not exceed £50,000,
the maximum payable is 90% of those liabilities;
where that total amount exceeds £50,000 but does not exceed £100,000, the maximum payable is £45,000 plus 30% of so much of that total amount as exceeds £50,000;
where that total amount exceeds £100,000, the maximum payable is £60,000;
The maximum amount which the Commission may determine should be paid by way of compensation, together with interest payable in any compensation year is the amount determined by the Commission as an amount which may be expected not to cause the total net compensation costs for that year to exceed £5,000,000.
