sane people with large money would not go thru a broker, but rather work directly with a prime broker and if you have real big money you can work direct with one of the top institutions.

In addition you would use BB terminal or reuters station and not a fulltiltpoker style setup.

Hedge212 is right, I seriously doubt that any trader/hedge fund with 100M $ would open an account with a retail broker. They most likely would choose a bank to trade with. If you are interested, here are the websites of some banks that offer FX Services:

Should be around 10.000.000.000 $. Anyway, the pro traders don't open a huge trade at once, they mostly do it successive.

I would go for a strong ECN like LCG or Dukascopy who can aggregate liquidity from many providers. UBS, GS or DB would only offer their own liquidity pools...

Btw I thought the question was around 100K or 1+million, not $100 million. Most of those banks would not accept retail traders anyway...
