The Company has elected to appoint FXOpen LP Limited https://fxopenprime.com/ as it’s ECN environment provider to whom all orders will be transmitted for execution. The Company has selected this ECN environment based on the technology they use to obtain the best possible outcome for your order. The aggregator derives its prices for Spot FX from multiple liquidity providers in the wholesale market. Although the Company will transmit Client orders for execution, contractually the Company remains the sole counterparty to the Clients’ trades and any execution of orders is done in the Company’s name, therefore the Company is the sole Execution Venue for the execution of Client orders.
