First Derivatives signs up Forex Club as its first client in Eastern Europe

Forex Club is going to be the second retail forex broker utilizing First Derivatives's technology, Real Forex being the first one. First Derivatives has one of the most sophisticated and advanced trading engines in the market having acquired Cognotec's fx technology back in 2010.

First Derivatives (AIM: FDP.L, ESM:FDP.I), a leading provider of software and consulting services to global investment banks, brokers and hedge funds, announces it has entered a strategic partnership ("partnership") with FOREX CLUB, an international online broker.

The agreement is First Derivatives' first partnership with a privately owned retail FX broker based in Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States ('CIS'). First Derivatives' Delta trading platform will ensure FOREX CLUB's global client base is plugged directly into the heart of the foreign exchange market by facilitating global access to the largest Liquidity pools in the market, provided by 12 leading global banks.
