Australian brokers under pressure

EightCap is an online financial trading company based in Melbourne, Australia. The broker is regulated by the Australian Securities and Investments Commissions (ASIC) and provides online Forex and CFD trading solutions.

Rosewell will be tasked with steering EightCap’s global marketing functions at a time when the Aussie regulators are scrutinizing FX brokers’ activities in accepting foreign customers. ASIC-authorized firms were not happy with the new rules that require them to submit their customer data to the regulatory body for review, with some already decided to get rid of their overseas clients while others opted to migrate their accounts to offshore subsidiaries.

The affected brands include some of the biggest names in Australia’s forex brokerage industry such as AxiTrader, OANDA, and IC Markets. Finance Magnates have been closely following the ASIC’s recent rulings and how brokers have reacted to its updated regulations.
