Alpari (UK) Is Out Of Business

Important announcement

Submitted on Fri, 16/01/2015 - 12:00;

The recent move on the Swiss franc caused by the Swiss National Bank’s unexpected policy reversal of capping the Swiss franc against the euro has resulted in exceptional volatility and extreme lack of liquidity. This has resulted in the majority of clients sustaining losses which has exceeded their account equity. Where a client cannot cover this loss, it is passed on to us.

This has forced Alpari (UK) Limited to confirm today, 16/01/15, that it has entered into insolvency. Retail client funds continue to be segregated in accordance with FCA rules.

Your previous thread about about raising the min. capital for retail forex to $10K has been extracted from FF to the Recycle Bin. Can you show us some proof of any "talking" about lowering leverage to 2:1 for forex?

Thanks. Hope you survived this SNB event OK.

Yes the end is near. Minimum capital increased to one hundred thousand billion dollar and leverage decreased to 0.001:1.
