About Totality
Totality—formerly known as Saxo Australia—stands for being invested in the world. From stocks and ETFs to bonds and FX, our mission is to be the global broker for global minds.
While our business now has a new name, logo and look, we remain fundamentally committed to helping ambitious, world-wise Aussies seamlessly “go global” with their investing.
Licensed and regulated
The details of Totality’s licence conditions, and the financial services it can offer, can be found through the ASIC website.
Totality’s AFSL requires it to comply with all relevant legislation on the holding, auditing and reporting of all client assets.
One legal requirement, which must be confirmed by the appointed auditor, is that client assets have been segregated at all times from company assets. This is done on a quarterly basis, as well as part of an annual AFSL audit by our external auditor Deloitte.
Funds and custody
Totality client funds are held in a segregated client trust account maintained with HSBC Australia and NAB, which are authorised deposit-taking institutions (ADIs) regulated by APRA and ASIC.
Totality has appointed Saxo Bank to hold all client securities, and permitted Saxo Bank to appoint a sub-custodian (currently Citi Group).
Saxo Bank holds these assets in custody and maintains these in compliance with all Australian and EU regulations imposed upon a custodian. Saxo Bank is a fully regulated European bank, and therefore maintains a high standard of operational and system controls.
Invest with confidence—Totality is backed by the Saxo Group
Saxo is a well-capitalised Danish (EU) bank, trusted by over 1 million clients globally and managing more than USD 100 billion in client assets. Saxo has an A- credit rating with S&P Global Ratings for stability, and has been designated as a Systemically Important Financial Institution (SIFI) in Denmark.
The global broker for global minds.
The name Totality sums up our ambition for our clients—the ability to connect to a world of opportunity, no matter their goal. To gain a total view on the market and take decisive action.
