The security of our funds is unmatched, even by the Big Dogs. Haven Exchange is taking the pioneering step of insuring every penny of the Exchange Funds held, and warrants that it will increase the coverage of their Fidelity Bond whenever necessary to insure that all your money is covered by our bond. Please feel free to call our carrier to confirm the information provided there. The contact numbers are on the bond itself. All funds are placed in completely liquid, AAA rated money market funds at Union Bank’s HighMark Financial. Further, the growth proceeds are never kept in the same account with the trust funds, thereby insuring full segregation of the funds to a degree unmatched in the industry. The funds are also fully guaranteed against bank failure by a 3 party policy of insurance. Two signatures are required for any dispersal of funds, as well two individual’s passwords and a security code that changes every 30 seconds for wires. The questions to ask prospective qualified intermediaries: 1. Does the amount of exchange funds on deposit exceed the coverage of your Fidelity Bond? Provide a written guarantee, please. If they tell you that the company is backed up by the Title Company with which they are affiliated, ask them to fax you the instrument that accomplishes this. Read it. 2. Do the growth proceeds accumulate in the same account with the principal? Do you retain a portion of the growth proceeds? If the answer to both questions is “yes”, then they are commingling the funds and if they get sued and lose, the judge could declare that all the funds are available to their debtors. http://www.havenexchange.com ...read more
