Mandatory Repatriation of U.S. Residents


The following pages are to inform you about the recent announcement of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) final ruling regarding retail Forex Trading for U.S. residents.

  Dodd - Frank Wall Street Reform Act

Effective October 18, 2010, any entity offering retail Forex and acting as the counterparty to U.S. residents must be registered with the CFTC and member of the National Futures Association (“NFA”).

In effect, the CFTC is requiring all foreign Forex brokers to repatriate U.S. residents back to a CFTC registered/NFA member Forex broker, such as FX Solutions, LLC, by October 18, 2010. Foreign Brokers who do not comply, including offshore Forex brokers, will be in direct violation of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and subject to strict penalties.

  What Does This Mean?

FX Solutions UK is currently acting as the counterparty to your retail Forex account and unfortunately, is not registered with the CFTC and/or member of the NFA. As a result,
FX Solutions UK will no longer be eligible to service Forex trading accounts held by residents of the U.S.
