PFG Currenex
PFGBEST has greatly enhanced its PFG Currenex platform and now can accommodate retail clients in addition to the institutional users already familiar with the platform. This updated product is a margin-based environment that matches your orders directly with bank liquidity providers without dealer confirmation. This model was developed as a way of decreasing the potential conflict of interest that customers can encounter when dealing with other brokers or Forex Dealer Merchants (FDMs.)
