Forex (FX) Customers of TFS-ICAP Should Contact Us

October 24, 2018 Active Cases & Investigations

On September 26, 2018, the Financial Times reported that TFS-ICAP, the foreign exchange brokerage firm, pleaded guilty to securities fraud in relation to a criminal investigation by the New York Attorney General’s Office into foreign exchange currency options. The charges stem from an investigation into the posting of fake trades, bids, and offers — commonly called “spoofing” — by interdealer brokers in foreign exchange markets launched in October 2015.

According to court documents filed in connection to the pleas, brokers at European-affiliated, TFS-ICAP Limited and TFS-ICAP LLC, showed fake trades in Latin American FX options to traders in New York to create the false impression of liquidity in the market and therefore, encourage them to trade.
