Fullerton Markets, a forex and contract for difference (CFD) broker, has joined the Financial Commission (FinCom), an external dispute resolution (EDR) institution focusing on the currency market.
Following the Commission's approval, the broker's authorized membership status went into effect on Monday.
In a statement published with WikiFX on Tuesday, the Financial Commission revealed Fullerton's authorized broker member status.
According to the self-regulatory body, Fullerton Markets and its clients may now use a broad variety of its services and membership perks as a result of the approval.
According to FinCom, one of these advantages is up to €20,000 in compensation from its Compensation Fund depending on the filed complaint.
“The Financial Commission offers brokerages and their clients with an independent third-party mediation mechanism that helps settle complaints in circumstances when parties are unable to directly come to an agreement over disputes,” the Commission added.
“The Financial Commission facilitates a simpler, faster resolution procedure for recognized members and their customers operating in CFDs, FX, and cryptocurrency markets than via traditional regulatory channels like arbitration or local court systems.”Recent FinCom Developments
FinCom has added at least three forex and CFD firms to its roster since the beginning of the year.
It welcomed Pepperstone in June, Agra Markets in March, and Inveslo, a newcomer to the FX business, in February.
Exness and IC Markets, two leading brokers, have also joined the group, the former in July and the latter in November.
However, in April, FinCom withdrew EGMarkets from its organization for “multiple breaches of the membership rules and guidelines pertaining to the payment of membership dues.”
Meanwhile, GANN Markets, a forex and CFD broker, resigned from FinCom in April, losing access to the organization's EDR services and Compensation Fund.
The reason for the withdrawal was not given.
