Section 193

Where the amount at credit in a fidelity fund is insufficient to pay the whole amount of all claims against it which have been allowed or in respect of which orders of the General Division of the High Court have been made, then the amount at credit in the fund must, subject to subsection (2), be apportioned between the claimants in such manner as the approved exchange thinks equitable, and such claim must, so far as it then remains unpaid, be charged against future receipts of the fund and paid out of the fund when moneys are available therein.

Where the aggregate of all claims which have been allowed or in respect of which orders of the General Division of the High Court have been made in relation to a defalcation by or in connection with a member of an approved exchange exceeds the total amount which may, pursuant to section 186(10), be paid under this Part in respect of that member, then such total amount must be apportioned between the claimants in such manner as the approved exchange thinks equitable.

Upon payment out of the fidelity fund of such total amount in accordance with the apportionment of all such claims under subsection (2), any order relating thereto and all other claims against the fund which may thereafter arise or be made in respect of that defalcation by or in connection with that member are absolutely discharged.
