                  \n
                1. Buy<\/li>\n

                  \n\n \n

                  \n \n The ‘Buy’ option is used to purchase assets from cash. This option will display the available cash on a client\u2019s wrapper. You have the option to use all or part of this when purchasing into an Asset to include Stocktrade Cash \n <\/h3>\n\n \n \n \n \n
                    \n
                  • When using the buy option you can search for an asset using its ISIN, Sedol or partial fund name. Once the shortlist has been created, enter either the percentage or amount. If you’re using an amount, the application will be processed as a percentage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                    \n\n \n

                    \n \n The ‘Sell’ option allows you to disinvest from assets in to cash. This cash will not be ring-fenced from a rebalance \n <\/h3>\n\n \n \n \n \n
                      \n
                    • You can sell by either selecting specific assets where you can sell by units, percentage or amount, or by selecting ‘Proportionate Disinvestment’. This option allows you to sell an amount either by the current balance percentage or the default strategy percentage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                      \n\n \n

                      \n \n The ‘Switching Assets’ option is used to switch out of assets in to other assets. For model rebalancing please use the MPM tool \n <\/h3>\n\n \n \n \n \n
                        \n
                      • You can switch assets either by percentage, units or amount. With the proceeds, you can purchase either assets, Stocktrade cash or wrapper cash by percentage or amount. If you’re using the amount, the application will be processed as a percentage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                        \u2193<\/h3>\n \n <\/span>\n\n \n \n <\/div>\n\n <\/article>\n\n\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\n

                        \n\n \n

                        \n \n The ‘Sell for Withdrawal’ option is used to switch assets in to cash, which is then ring-fenced from rebalancing \n <\/h3>\n\n \n \n \n \n
                          \n
                        • ‘Sell for Withdrawal’ enables sale proceeds to be held in the cash facility to allow transactions such as withdrawals or GIA to ISA transfer.<\/li>\n
                        • To ensure the cash is available, this feature will suspend all rebalance or model realignment processing on the wrapper until the BCE, withdrawal or internal transfer is processed. Rebalances will resume once the withdrawal has been processed.<\/li>\n
                        • For SIPP withdrawals, please ensure you complete the ‘Pension Withdrawal Application’ form and send to us via Secure Email as soon as possible.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

                          A switch application summary is generated during the submission process. This doesn’t need to be sent to Wealthtime but can be signed by the client for your own audit purposes.<\/p>\n

                          A switch statement will be produced once the last trade settles and will be available online showing details of the trade.<\/p>\n

                          Once a switch is placed, we cannot reverse the instruction, unless in extreme circumstances and the request has not already gone to market.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t
