I'd never thought about it, but clearly it is a risk. I think the issue is access while it is being sorted out, and potential for a haircut, rather than record-keeping.
Interesting article on when it happened before:
https://www.ft.com/content/6cc31c32-0c37-43d1-8a5a-9386a5c57137I don't have subscription but was able to get it by searching for the content: "I use an online stock broker to purchase shares in quoted companies. I receive share certificates in return. If my broker were to go bust, what would happen?"
Is there anything people with T212 accounts do for record keeping?
They are FSCS protected I thought but that’s only the cash if you have shares what are people doing? Are the emails they send enough should they go kaput
