ActivTrades PLC has a robust and regularly reviewed Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP). Our regulator, The Financial Conduct Authority, has strongly endorsed the recommendations of the Basel II accord. This includes the strictly maintained minimum capital requirement of 8% for any net foreign exchange exposure. Historically, ActivTrades PLC has maintained capital and reserves at a level far greater than has been prescribed by our regulator. The Company regards this as the key measure of our security.

Limited Risk Accounts are compulsory for clients residing in France and provide added protection when placing CFD transactions. The protection ensures your risk of loss does not exceed the initial amount invested, meaning loss is limited solely to the margin required to open a position.
