Is your money safe with Horses & Gifts B.V.?
Horses & Gifts B.V. holds a small-EMI registration from De Nederlandsche Bank, which means client money must be safeguarded: held separately from the firm's own funds at a credit institution, or covered by an equivalent insurance policy. E-money is not a bank deposit - it is not covered by a national deposit guarantee scheme, so there is no automatic compensation payout if the firm fails.
If an authorised EMI becomes insolvent, safeguarded funds sit outside the insolvency estate and are returned to customers by the administrator - repayment can take time, and administration costs may be deducted along the way. Small-EMI regimes are national and domestic-only; the exact safeguarding arrangements are worth confirming with the firm and its regulator.
