For those clients who have neither the time nor inclination to trade themselves, we are pleased to offer this facility.

How it Works

Step 1
Choose the level of your initial trading bank. The options are shown on the MaxNet Managed Account application form.

Step 2
Complete the MaxNet Managed Account application form and return it together with your cheques in respect of your initial trading bank/subscription.

Step 3
We send you a confirmation letter accepting and confirming your instructions, plus a receipt in respect of your payments.

Step 4
Acting in accordance with our daily instructions, our agents are responsible for the placing of all MaxNet trades on behalf of MaxNet Managed Account holders. All trades will be advised by email/text to MaxNet Managed Account holders prior to the match taking place.

Step 5
Winnings/losses are calculated daily and you will receive a monthly statement detailing all transactions on your account. In order to help offset the additional MaxNet Managed Account administration costs we charge a 5% commission on the profit element of winning trades. This is in line with the 5% Betting Exchange commission deducted from the winnings of those trading for themselves.

If you have chosen the income option a cheque for any end-month net balance in excess of your initial trading bank will be sent with your statement.

Settlement of Trades

For the avoidance of doubt, all MaxNet Managed Account trades are settled on the basis of the traded prices.

Security of Your Funds

Your funds are held in the segregated Centaur Group Client Account at Barclays Bank, Barclays Bank, Bondate Within, Alnwick, Northumberland NE66 3TF. Monies held in this account remain at all times the property of our clients and save in accordance with your written instructions will neither be used in any other way by Centaur, nor form any part of the assets of the Group.

Financial Services Authority (FSA)
Maxnet Funds are not subject to regulation by the FSA as these products fall outside the scope of the Financial Services and Markets Act.

Arising from a continuous dialogue with the FSA, we amended our processes in early 2006 to provide an enhanced level of control over funds for individual clients and to ensure that Centaur/Maxnet products could not be construed as collective investments.

Anti-Money Laundering Legislation

It is the policy of Centaur Global Ltd to ensure that the Company, its management and its employees are committed to complying with all legislation and appropriate guidelines designed to combat money laundering.

To this end we are required to carry out a number of checks on prospective (and current) clients prior to the receipt of funds. We will require the following information from you and you should have this to hand when enquiring about opening an account:

Please do not send any funds to us until we have carried out the required checks and have confirmed that it is in order for the transfer to take place.
