The Financial Services Authority (FSA)

The FSA regulates The Payment Services Regulations, which were implemented on 1 November 2009. 4X Currency Corporation PLC complies with The Payment Services Regulations transitional provisions.

Designated Client Accounts

For maximum security, all client funds are kept in designated accounts at ABN Amro Bank for the receipt and payment of transaction monies. 4X keeps its own operating accounts with Barclays Bank. All client payments have dual digital sign off. ABN Amro has intra-day reporting so that incoming payments can be seen in real time. Outgoing payments can be tracked and traced, also in real time.

Back-to-back Trading

4X does not hold stocks of foreign currency and never speculates with client funds. It always buys to order, so it has no currency exposure or risk and cannot be affected by currency movements. Every client trade is automatically backed with an identical deal with at least an AA- rated bank before the deal is confirmed to the client.

Terrorist Financing

4X complies with guidelines issued by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) to ensure that monies are never paid into terrorist-operated accounts. It never pays to accounts in OFAC sanctioned countries, www.treas.gov/offices/enforcement/ofac and operates a strict due diligence check for other high-risk countries. Any suspicious transactions are immediately reported to the relevant authorities.
