The company’s mission is to provide global traders with access to the world’s largest and most liquid market by offering innovative trading tools, hiring excellent trading educators, and striving for the best online trading experience. Clients benefit from mobile trading, one-click order execution, and trading from real-time charts.

Over the years, FXCM has expanded its global presence, operating subsidiaries regulated in various jurisdictions, including the United Kingdom and Australia. The company has faced regulatory challenges, notably in 2017 when it was banned from U.S. markets for defrauding its customers. Despite these challenges, FXCM continues to serve a global clientele, emphasizing transparency and customer education in the trading industry.
