PaulLouis Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 Link http://www.pfd-nz.com/company-profile.php reads "effective May, 2011, Pacific Financial Derivatives Ltd (PFD), a New Zealand registered company bearing # 973842, is 100% beneficially owned and controlled by a Japanese investor, who has rich experience in running similar large derivative institutions in Japan, the biggest retail FX market in terms of 40% global retail trading volume, and supplying most competitive terms and conditions to retail clients. The Japanese investor brought in and implemented Japanese advanced Trading Technology in the Company. This control change enables PFD towards robust financial management, focus on technology investment by way of adding KiwiTrader, a new trading platform, new direction, new policies, risk management, stringent compliance, best customer service etc. which explains why the company was rebranded to Pacific Financial Derivatives Ltd". The above explains why the company was rebranded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
