Saxo Bank Announces new FX Crosses and Price Improvements

HELLERUP, Denmark, January 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --



Saxo Bank, the online multi-asset trading and investment specialist, has announced several improvements in its FX offering in response to developments in the global markets and to better accommodate the needs of its global client base.

As a pioneer within the FX retail space, Saxo Bank consistently seeks to develop its proposition proactively. The bank is therefore pleased to announce the launch of two new currency crosses against the Croatian Kuna, EURHRK and USDHRK. These additions to the platform will particularly benefit Saxo Bank's significant client base in Eastern and Central Europe, which underlines the global nature of the bank's services and products.

In addition, from 2nd January Saxo Bank will halve its spreads on USDTHB enabling retail clients to trade this currency pair on spreads of 25 pips. In response to the ongoing volatility in the THB, Saxo Bank has taken the decision to increase its competitiveness on the USDTHB cross which, alongside the recent launch of the XAUTHB cross, will allow clients greater flexibility in their investment and hedging strategies.
