FXDD‘s business model is to provide interbank market maker prices to our clients. This business model allows clients to take the trading risks while FXDD concentrates on facilitating their trades at the best possible prices. It allows them to avoid the conflict of interest where some firms may put their trading P/L ahead of their clients. Instead they look to foster a team oriented relationship – clearly separating execution from trading.

Marketindex is the forex and CFD trading arm of the Royal Bank of Scotland, providing you with great security, liquidity, execution and tight spreads. In addition, minimum account sizes are reasonable considering you’re trading directly with a bank. One thing I didn’t like about browsing the website is that it is a bit scant on information and there are no screenshots or good descriptions of the proprietary trading platform. However, since accounts are limited to residents of the United Kingdom, Germany, Austria and Switzerland it’s of little concern to me since I am a U.S. citizen and resident of Thailand. Still it would have been nice to be able to do more in depth research about the broker and its offerings.
