We take the security of your funds seriously and safeguard them in line with applicable regulatory obligations and industry best practices. To support this, several controls and processes are in place.
Segregation of client funds
Client funds are held in omnibus accounts separate from Exness’s corporate funds. This helps ensure that client money is clearly identifiable and not used for company expenses or other obligations.
Ongoing monitoring and reconciliation
We conduct regular monitoring and reconciliation to verify that client balances are accurately recorded and maintained.
Custodians
Client funds are held with regulated, highly reputable and credit-worthy high street institutions that are subject to our internal risk management and due diligence processes.
Diversification
Where possible, we seek to diversify client funds across multiple institutions to support prudent risk management. In certain cases, regulatory requirements may require funds to be held with local institutions.
Verification of transactions
Withdrawals from a trading account requires a verification code sent to the registered security type to verify the owner’s identity.
Compensation Fund
Exness is a member of the Financial Commission, an independent international organization that provides external dispute resolution services for traders. We joined this organization at our own initiative to demonstrate our commitment to transparency and impartial handling of client disputes. Read more here.
There is no government-backed Compensation Fund or similar scheme available for clients. While such schemes may exist in other contexts, they are typically subject to eligibility criteria and coverage limits. For this reason, the controls and processes we maintain to safeguard client funds are an important part of our overall risk management framework.
Risk Management
We take steps to ensure our financial stability, including maintaining liquidity and additional reserves, monitoring our financial position, and performing regular audits. Limits and contingency plans are in place to support smooth operations under varying market conditions. In the unlikely event of insolvency, bankruptcy, or liquidation, applicable laws and regulatory procedures would be enforced to protect stakeholders including our clients. Our risk management framework is designed to minimize such scenarios and ensure that operations remain resilient.
Our approach to safeguarding client funds is implemented in accordance with the regulatory obligations applicable to us and the terms agreed between us. This article is provided for general informational purposes only and does not modify or replace the applicable Client Agreement, which governs your relationship with us.
