    I don't think it has ever been made clear to me by a bank/ investment platform etc how a form can or can not be signed. It seems to be a case of try it and see if it is accepted or maybe ask first.

    Most platforms on the IFA side fully publish what they accept in the way of digital signatures (i.e. which software is acceptable). Most also state that they will not accept uncertified electronic signatures.

    I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.

    I have password protected signature scan accessed directly by pdf to complete forms, and that hasn't been rejected yet - though there's always a first time.
