Claus Nielsen, head of markets at Saxo Bank, said: "Saxo Bank will
continue to cater for high-net-worth and institutional traders who
increasingly demand usability, mobility, performance, and service when
executing online trades and orders. At the same time, ForexTrading.com will
appeal to Forex (www.forextrading.com/) and CFD traders who are price
sensitive and do not require a personal service, but still want the ability
to utilise an award-winning online trading platform.

"We believe the retail foreign exchange market will maintain its growth
trajectory for the next 10 to 15 years and we want to cater for
high-net-worth investors as well as high-frequency traders to who tight
spreads and deep liquidity are essential. There is no additional commission
on ForexTrading.com and we see ForexTrading.com as bringing new competition
to the smaller competitors, outside the tier-one banks, in the market focused
on foreign exchange."

The minimum initial deposit when opening an account with ForexTrading.com
is $2,000 or equivalent and no interest will be paid on funds on deposit.
ForexTrading.com will only offer English support and service and
ForexTrading.com only supports retail trading accounts.
