- Staff Report — business@khaleejtim­es.com

dubai — Saxo Bank has introduced a new aggressive pricing structure in the Mena region to support multi-asset trading and grow market share.

In key products, new clients can save up to 50 per cent compared to competitor­s as well as benefiting from Saxo’s multi-asset trading range and service.

The new structure will place Saxo as one of the most competitiv­e brokers in the market across a range of products.

Saxo provides one of the deepest and most comprehens­ive multiasset trading platforms available and delivers unparallel­ed access to global capital markets. Through its connectivi­ty to more than 100 global product and liquidity providers, Saxo offers access to over 35,000 financial instrument­s across asset classes, including ETFs, stocks, bonds, CFDs, forex, futures and options that are cross margined from a single account.

The new pricing scheme in combinatio­n with the products, platform and service is an extremely competitiv­e propositio­n and is aligned across all asset classes benefittin­g each of Saxo’s three client segments — Classic, Platinum and VIP. For example, going forward, any client actively trading equities will also benefit sharper pricing on all other instrument­s.

Clients can trade US stocks from $9.90 and European stocks from €10 per trade — less than half of

what competitor­s typically charge. Saxo’s forex pricing is also highly competitiv­e with clients able to trade euro-dollar with all-inclusive spreads from 0.6 pips and pounddolla­r from 0.7 pips — around 40 per cent less than what competitor­s typically charge. As clients trade more actively these prices become even more attractive.

Steve Weller, chief executive officer of Saxo Bank MENA region, said: “We are at a defining period for the investment and trading industry and we are thrilled to be able to offer the most competitiv­e pricing, product and platform package among banks and brokers in the Mena region. The industry continues to face price compressio­n and we are determined to be ahead of the curve.”

“Our pricing is very competitiv­e, but our core strengths such as depth of product offering, quality of platforms and service level are equally essential for our clients. With our new pricing structure and recently launched upgraded platforms, our full package for clients has never been more competitiv­e,” he added.
