Thanks to the company’s robust risk management policies, the Company enjoyed a profitable trading day in yesterday’s session and didn’t have any negative impact from the Swiss Franc’s extreme volatility.

Markets.com is happy to update all of its clients, that as per its previous commitment to its clients, the Company is forgiving all negative balances on clients’ accounts that were caused when clients couldn’t close their Swiss Franc positions fast enough. Markets.com has a firm commitment to its retail clients that they can never risk more than the funds in their account, and thus when severe market volatility and gaps take place, the Company adjusts clients’ negative balances accordingly.

As a very well capitalized broker, we are proud to announce that its business as usual at Markets.com – all trading activities and other transactions are processing normally.
