FXCM의 미국 라이센스 취소되었네요.

미국 최대의 FX 중계사인 FXCM의 미국 라이센스가 취소되었다는 정보를 공유 합니다.

예전에도 사건사고가 많았던 회사이지만 가장 공신력이 있다는 이유로 국내 FX마진 거래 대부분이 FXCM의 호가를 가져다 썼는데 국내 선물사들은 어떤 대응을 할지가 관건이군요.

요약하자면

• NDD(노 딜링 데스크)로 운영한다고 광고하였으나 아니였음
• GAIN CAPITAL에 미국 고객을 이전함
• 벌금 700만 USD(약 80억)
• NFA 라이센스 취소로 한국증권사들도 더이상 FXCM을 사용 할 수 없음

NFA bars New York retail foreign exchange dealer Forex Capital Markets, LLC and its principals Dror Niv, William Ahdout and Ornit Niv from membership

February 6, Chicago—National Futures Association (NFA) has barred New York retail foreign exchange dealer Forex Capital Markets, LLC (FXCM) from membership. NFA also barred FXCM principals Dror Niv, William Ahdout, and Ornit Niv from membership and from acting as a principal of an NFA Member.

The Decision, issued by NFA's Business Conduct Committee (BCC), is based on a Complaint issued by the BCC and a settlement offer submitted by FXCM, Dror Niv, Ahdout and Ornit Niv. The BCC found that FXCM, Dror Niv and Ahdout engaged in numerous deceptive and abusive execution activities that were designed to benefit FXCM, to the detriment of its customers. The BCC also found that FXCM and Dror Niv provided misleading information to NFA. Finally, as a result of a number of significant supervisory failures, the BCC found that FXCM, Dror Niv, Ahdout and Ornit Niv failed to adequately supervise the firm and its employees.

FXCM has had a long history of disciplinary actions involving, among other things, deceptive and abusive execution practices to benefit FXCM to the detriment of its customers. NFA's BCC has authorized four prior Complaints against FXCM. In 2011, FXCM was charged with engaging in asymmetrical price slippage practices and ordered to pay a $2 million monetary sanction and not engage in the types of deceptive and abusive practices detailed in NFA's 2017 Complaint. More information regarding FXCM's disciplinary record is available by using NFA's BASIC system, which is accessible through NFA's website.

The 2017 Decision will become effective on February 21, 2017, and FXCM will withdraw from NFA membership within 15 days of February 21, unless this 15 day period is extended by the BCC.
