All client money is kept separate from our funds and held in separate accounts with top-tier banks -
We only use our own funds for hedging and never engage in proprietary trading
For individual accounts, client margin is continuously calculated in real-time, and in the event of a margin call, the position is liquidated automatically (depending on account type).
The liquidation of a losing position is automatic and executed with the minimum possible delay, giving you the best possible rate available on the market. Stops and limits are also monitored and executed in real-time, tracing the best rate available on the market at the time when the target price is reached.
All our margin settings are also fully compatible with all existing CIRO and other regional regulators and are reviewed on a regular basis.
We believe in and firmly support regulatory oversight, undergo regular audits, and communicate any changes to our clients.
We continually review procedures across various areas of our business which include:
-
Business continuity and disaster recovery

Supervision of electronic trading systems (i.e. trading platforms)
