What applies to every account.

  • Client money is kept separate

    Client deposits are held in segregated trust accounts with an approved bank, apart from OFinancial LLC's own money.

    Client agreement, section 6.2

  • Negative balance protection

    If a stop out leaves your balance below zero, the client agreement provides for it to be adjusted to zero. You can still lose all the money you deposit.

  • A route for complaints

    Our compliance officer reviews every complaint. If you aren't satisfied, you can ask for it to go to our directors, then to the Financial Services Commission, Mauritius.

The limits.

Segregation keeps client money apart from the company's own money, but it isn't a guarantee. Keep these points in mind:

  • Client money is pooled in the trust accounts. Each client's money isn't held in a separate account of its own.
  • Segregation doesn't cover every loss, for example if the company can't pay back what it owes.
  • We aren't liable if a bank holding client money becomes insolvent.
  • Trading with OFinancial LLC isn't covered by a client compensation scheme.
  • Holding client money separately doesn't limit trading losses. CFDs can lose you all the money you deposit.
  • Money can be moved out of the trust accounts as the client agreement allows, for example to settle losses and fees (section 6.5).

CFDs are leveraged products. You could lose all the money you deposit. They may not be suitable for everyone.
