LONDON, June 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Saxo Bank, the online trading and investment specialist, has been awarded Best Online Futures and Options Provider at this year's MoneyAM Online Finance Awards.

While Saxo Bank is renowned for online Forex trading, Saxo Bank offers more than 130 futures contracts on live online tradable prices.

Recently, Saxo Bank expanded its derivatives universe by introducing Contract Options, an investment alternative that allows clients to trade Options on gold, oil and other commodities, currencies, interest rates, bonds and major stock indices. By trading Contract Options online, clients can take advantage of market uncertainty and changes in market volatility, and implement trading strategies in rising or falling markets, as well as markets without any specific direction.

The aim of the awards is to recognise innovative and high quality service, as well as products from companies in the online world of finance.
