FXCM Company Profile

FXCM: One of the World's Largest Forex Dealer Members*
With substantial operations around the world, over 85,000 live accounts from nearly 200 countries are traded on the FXCM trading platform, including over 400 institutional clients.. In the FX market, the broker you align yourself with is the counterparty to EVERY transaction. According to the financial data posted on the CFTC website*, FXCM is one of the largest Forex Dealer Members. In our opinion, that makes them a safer counterparty with which to conduct trading.

Greater Volume and Access to Competitive Pricing
FXCM's trading volume is virtually among the highest in industry compared to other Forex Dealer members. In an over-the-counter market where traders must rely on the financial strength, stability and integrity of their dealer in order to fulfill obligations on their forex transactions, size does matter. Size and sophistication dictate a market maker's access to Interbank prices. FXCM has built strong execution relationships with many of the world's largest international banks and as a result, FXCM receives and is able to pass on the benefits of size to our clients. FXCM maintains tight dealing spreads and quotes aggressively at all times.**
