Things to know

As a professional, you’ll be treated differently to retail traders. Here are some of those differences to be aware of.

Higher leverage

Professional Clients are not subject to DFSA leverage caps in place to protect Retail Clients, so should consider their risk appetite.

No negative balance protection

Losses can exceed deposits on a professional account.

Sophisticated language

We won't necessarily use simple language in our communications to Professional Clients.

Assumed experience

We expect professional traders to have a certain level of knowledge and understanding.
