Alex Pusco, founder and chairman of ActivTrades, registered a brokerage firm in Switzerland in 2001. As early as 2005. he decided to move it to the City of London, which in many ways raised the status of a dealing center. By 2009, the Forex brand had gained undeniable recognition in Europe, primarily in italy and Germany. Subsequent promotions have brought the company popularity in South America, Southeast Asia and the Russian Federation.
Interaction with regulatory organizations
The main advantages of this DC can be considered international status and accountability of well-known regulatory organizations – at least, to judge about this allow the reviews dedicated activTrades. The broker actively interacts with the Financial Conduct Authority (registration number 434413) in the UK and with CONSOB (97) in Italy. Thus, its clients receive a relatively strong confirmation of direct access to the interbank. A strong argument for this company is also active participation in the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).
