Reason for this visit

According to the Reuters, the United Kingdom has expanded its leading position in the field of global FX trading in the years since it voted to leave the European Union. In addition, the British retail foreign exchange market has one of the world's three most stringent regulatory bodies, that is the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Many FX dealers take obtaining FCA regulation for pride, and also hope to enter the country to develop market business. To help investors or practitioners have a more comprehensive understanding of the dealers in that country, the survey team is going to UK for site visits.

On-site visit

This time the survey team visited the dealer FXCM in London, UK, with the specific address at 20 GreshaM STreeT FourTh Floor London EC2 7JE UNITED KINGDOM.

Based on the above address, the survey team came to the destination of this survey. The building is located in a developed business district of London, with European banks and business districts nearby. The building is heavily guarded and has a directory in the lobby. Further, the surveyors found the name of the dealer FXCM on the directory.

The surveyors checked with the receptionist in the lobby who confirmed that the dealer's office is located on the 4th floor of the building. However, visitors are required to make an appointment and register to go upstairs for a visit. Therefore, the surveyors were not able to visit the dealer FXCM and take pictures of the interior of the office.

Conclusion

The survey team went to London, UK, to visit the dealer FXCM as planned, and the dealer's logo could be found on its publicly displayed address, indicating that the dealer has a real place of business. Unfortunately, the surveyors were not able to visit and photograph the interior of the company, so the specific scale of its exhibition business was unknown. Investors are advised to make their choice after comprehensive consideration.
