\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As of October 11 2018, Admiral Markets Pty Ltd. has introduced a negative balance policy to allow clients to trade and analyse the financial markets with confidence.<\/p>\n

Being prone to volatility, investors who trade in the Forex and CFD (Contract for Difference) markets can be vulnerable to sudden price changes. When these movements occur in instruments being held in an open trade, this can have a significant impact on the value of those positions and could result in an investor\u2019s account balance falling below zero.<\/p>\n

Should this happen, Admiral Markets may exercise its discretion to relieve clients of their repayment obligations by returning the negative balance to zero. This will protect the financial position of eligible clients, and will prevent them from falling into debt due to unsuccessful trades.<\/p>\n

This policy follows global trends in consumer protection. In Europe, recent regulatory changes made by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) require European CFD providers to limit Retail client losses with automated negative balance protection.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Cristian Moreno, CEO of Admiral Markets Pty Ltd.<\/em><\/p>\n

The CEO of Admiral Markets Pty Ltd., Cristian Moreno, commented, \u201cAlthough negative balance protection is not an Australian regulatory requirement, we are proud to be leading the way with this initiative. Our new negative balance policy will help give retail clients the peace of mind they need to trade confidently, and is just one of the ways we support our clients\u2019 investment journey.\u201d<\/p>
