How Schwab works



Forex accounts are not protected by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC), nor do they receive a preference in any bankruptcy proceeding pursuant to Part 190 of the CFTC's regulations.
Read additional CFTC and NFA futures and forex public disclosures for Charles Schwab Futures and Forex LLC.

Forex accounts are not available to residents of Ohio or Arizona.

Charles Schwab Futures and Forex is the counterparty to all forex customer trades, and exclusively uses straight-through processing such that it automatically (without human intervention and without exception) enters into the identical but opposite transaction with another liquidity provider (creating an offsetting position in its own name).
