LeapRate is pleased to announce that we have added AxiTrader, the leading Australia-based Forex brokerage firm, to our Approved List of global Forex firms. AxiTrader joins AvaFX, FXCM, FxPro, IG Group, MIG BANK, Saxo Bank and Swissquote on a list of what we believe represent some of the best managed, regulated, and customer-friendly Forex firms around the globe.
AxiTrader was founded in 2007, initially representing ODL Securities in Australia (branded as AxisODL), before going independent in 2010 and since growing to be the largest Australian-owned and run Forex firm.
Gerald Segal, Managing Director at LeapRate, commented: “Australia has grown in importance in the FX world over the past two years. We have seen a number of the world’s largest FX firms receive ASIC licensing and open offices in Australia — in part to service the growing Australia market, but also to use as a base for the fast-expanding Asia-Pacific region. Australia is a very friendly and credible place to do business, with ASIC being viewed as a very competent regulator. We believe that these trends will significantly benefit the domestic Australia owned firms, led by AxiTrader.”
