What you should know

• Global Prime starts clients off with 1:100 leverage. If a trader wants to increase their leverage they will need to speak with us and answer a questionnaire to determine the risk the trader poses and that the trader understands the risks when using higher leverage.  This is contrary to other brokers who offer high leverage on signup (often up to 1:500).
• Every broker has their own approach to foreign exchange trading services. Global Prime is unique in that if asked, they will show you which of their liquidity providers filled your order.
