Policies and procedures concerning the choice of bank depositories, custodians and counterparties

OANDA holds its operating and customer funds in accounts at top tier banks. OANDA only holds funds at banks with a credit rating of A or higher. When initially selecting a bank depository, a thorough review of the bank’s credit rating and financial statements are completed. OANDA uses certain criteria to evaluate the financial condition of the bank. Subsequent reviews are performed at least annually.

Material Risks associated with OANDA acting as a counterparty to Eligible Contract Participants (ECPs)

ECP credit risk arises when an ECP’s total deposited funds are insufficient to cover trading losses incurred. This situation may arise when there is a sudden and significant movement in the market relating to an instrument in which the client has an open position. OANDA controls the risks associated with ECP trading activities by requiring ECP’s to deposit cash collateral. OANDA does not allow ECP’s to enter into trades if the ECP has not deposited a sufficient amount of collateral. In addition, the trading platform manages this risk by automatically closing out an ECP’s open positions when there is insufficient collateral on deposit. OANDA also has affiliated companies that act as regulated forex counterparties in foreign markets and OANDA is required to maintain a higher level of capital based on its relationships with those affiliates.

Material Complaints or Actions

OANDA is required to disclose any material administrative, civil, enforcement or criminal complaints or actions filed against OANDA where such complaints or actions have not concluded, and any enforcement complaints or actions filed against FCM during the last three years.
