Pinagsama ng StoneX ang FX Brand ang Gain Capital sa UK

Mga Balita sa Mga Forex Broker sa WikiFX (10 Marso 2021) - Ang StoneX, dating kilala bilang INTL FCStone, ay tinatanggalan ng negosyo sa FX sa ilalim na ang tatak ng Gain Capital sa UK, na bahagi ng mga plano na muling ayusin ang mga pangunahing aktibidad nito matapos nitong makuha ang kompanya noong 2020.

The US-based financial group is winding down the Gain entity to merge it into StoneX and use the capital productively elsewhere.

According to regulatory filings, Gain Capital UK Limited has reduced its share capital from nearly £87 million to around £1 million. The writedown occurred on February 24.

The FCA-regulated company, which has a dozen trading names/brands in the UK, including Forex.com and City Index, is regulated as a full scope €730k IFPRU Investment Firm. This requires Gains UK business to maintain the minimum required regulatory capital above £1 million.

We understand, based on info from sources familiar with the matter, that Gain Capital UK is merely restructuring its share capital and reserves to accommodate the planned back-end changes to prepare for the entitys winddown.

As such, reducing the regulatory capital seems to be a standard step in the larger corporate integration process for StoneXs retail FX business in the UK.

Pursuant to section 288 of the Companies Act 2006, Gain Capital Holdings passes the following written resolutions:

1 the share capital of the Company be reduced from £86,948,098.14, divided into 8,694,809,814 ordinary shares of £0.01 each (of which have been issued and are fully paid) to £999,903.12861, divided into 8,694,809,814 ordinary shares of £0.000115 each, by reducing the nominal value of each issued share from £0.01 to £0.000115; and

2 the share premium account of the Company be cancelled.

The move to consolidate its City business comes as Gain Capital has applied for a regulatory license from the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) just ahead of the Brexit transition period expiry.

Concerning the financials of Gain Capital UK Limited, the latest reports released in September 2020 showed that the broker lost £11.36 million for the year ended December 2019. This compares to the £19.81 million profit the online trading provider recorded in the previous financial year.

However, this should have changed as most online brokers had strong underlying performance in the business throughout 2020, bolstered by the coronavirus-induced volatility.

Last year, StoneX Group has completed the acquisition of GAIN Capital Holdings, which in July 2020 reported its last financial results as an independent business.

Sean M. O‘Connor, CEO of StoneX Group, said that they look to leverage Gain’s highly digitized and efficient on-ramp for smaller customers, and he thinks they can deploy that on-ramp throughout other businesses in order to make their goal of becoming a global institutional grade financial network a reality.
