INTRODUCING SHIELD PAY – OUR NEWEST MLS ADVANTAGE MEMBER – the UK’s leading Third-Party Managed Account and Digital Corporate Escrow provider
On 25th November 2019, the new SRA Accounts Rules came into force. Rule 11 officially provides the ability for firms to use Third-Party-Managed Accounts (TPMAs) as an alternative to holding client monies. TPMAs will not be appropriate for every firm, but TPMAs can be a great option for firms looking to reduce their risk exposure to handling client money and in the case of specific transactions or arrangements; such as commercial rent deposits, trust and guardianship accounts, retention amounts and escrow arrangements.
