Commentary on Sections Overview Overview Section 867: Lloyd’s premium trust funds
2620.This section provides that if an investment forms part of a Lloyd’s premium trust fund it will not be treated as a relevant investment. It is based on section 481(5) of ICTA, sections 183(2) and 184(1) of FA 1993 and regulations 2(1) and 4(1) of the building society regulations.
2621.Subsection (1) refers to a “premium trust fund” rather than a “premiums trust fund”, as per the source legislation (section 481(5)(f) of ICTA and regulation 4(1)(o) of the building society regulations). This new defined term follows the amendment made to section 184 of FA 1993 by articles 75 and 79 of FISMA(CA)(T)O, effective from 1 December 2001.
2622.The new definition of “premium trust fund” used in the main Lloyd’s legislation (section 184 of FA 1993) is applied by subsection (2). This means that new rules relating to the Sourcebook made by the Financial Services Authority under FISMA will have effect for the purposes of defining a “premium trust fund” in respect of this Chapter.
