Segregated Managed Accounts
A segregated managed account gives you SINTRO's systematic strategies in an account held in your own name at an established custodian bank. You keep legal ownership of every security and see every position and transaction; SINTRO manages the portfolio under a mandate that allows trading only.

How a segregated managed account works
- 01
Your account, your assets
The account is opened in your name at the custodian bank you choose. Securities and cash are held there for you and are legally separate from SINTRO, so they are not part of SINTRO's assets.
- 02
A mandate for trading only
You grant SINTRO a limited power of attorney to manage the portfolio. It covers placing orders within the agreed strategy; it does not allow SINTRO to withdraw or transfer assets out of your account.
- 03
Systematic implementation
Your account follows the selected Systematic-Traded Fund strategy: signals, allocation, algorithmic execution and risk limits are applied by the same automated process that runs our live strategies.
- 04
Full transparency
Every position, trade and cost is visible in your custodian account. SINTRO adds performance and risk reporting on top of the bank's statements.
Set-up in five steps
We coordinate the process with the custodian. Opening the account at the bank usually takes the longest; the investment itself starts as soon as the account is funded.
- 01
Introductory call
We discuss your objectives, risk budget and preferred strategy, and confirm your investor classification and suitability.
- 02
Choose the custodian and open the account
You select BNP Paribas, UBS or V-Bank. The bank opens the account in your name and completes its own know-your-customer checks.
- 03
Sign the management agreement
The asset management agreement and the limited power of attorney define the strategy, the fee and the trading authority. You receive the cost information before signing.
- 04
Fund the account
You transfer the investment amount, from EUR 10,000, to your new account.
- 05
Go live
SINTRO implements the strategy and reports regularly. You can follow every transaction in your account at any time.
Costs
The individual fee is agreed in the management agreement. Larger mandates generally qualify for lower fees.
Custodian banks
You choose the bank that holds your account. All three are established institutions with dedicated services for independent asset managers.

Frequently asked questions
What is a segregated managed account?
A segregated managed account is a portfolio held in the investor's own name at a custodian bank and managed by an asset manager under a mandate. Unlike a fund, the investor owns the individual securities directly and sees every position.
Can SINTRO withdraw money from my account?
No. The power of attorney covers trading within the agreed strategy only. Withdrawals and transfers out of the account remain reserved to you as the account holder.
What happens to my assets if SINTRO stops operating?
Your assets are held in your name at the custodian bank and are not part of SINTRO's assets. They remain in your account, and you keep full access to them.
Which custodian should I choose?
All three banks, BNP Paribas, UBS and V-Bank, can hold a SINTRO managed account. The choice often depends on existing banking relationships, location and the bank's price list; we are happy to help you compare.
What does a managed account cost?
SINTRO's management fee lies between 0 and 100 bps per year, depending on mandate size, strategy and scope of service. Custody and transaction costs are charged separately by the custodian according to its price list. You receive the full cost information before signing.
