Defying the current economic downturn that has chilled financial markets globally, Interbank FX (IBFX.com), a leading provider of online off-exchange retail foreign currency (Forex/FX) trading, enjoyed record breaking revenues in September and set a new high of US$77 billion in trading volume, the company's chairman reported today.
"A unique characteristic of our company and the Forex market as a whole is that we actually welcome volatility in the financial markets," said Interbank FX Chairman and President Todd Crosland. "Volatility creates trading opportunities for our customers which in turn generates trading revenue for IBFX."
Throughout 2008, IBFX's strong company performance has continued to accelerate in spite of the deteriorating financial climate, as illustrated by the following corporate milestones:
• Record number of more than 4.8 million customer trades in September
• Newly funded accounts exceeded 1,700 in September, representing the second best month in company history
• Current net capital in excess of $37 million
• 2008 to post fifth consecutive year of more than 100 percent revenue growth for the company
"It is extremely exciting and even somewhat surreal to announce these positive results given the current state of the global economy," said Crosland. "Interbank FX is committed in its effort to continue providing its customers leading edge trading technology and world class customer service."
In addition to its most recent announcement, IBFX has also been recognized by a myriad of trade and mainstream financial media throughout 2008. Below is a list of significant honors and awards the company has received thus far:
