Saxo Bank A/S

Saxo Bank A/S is a Danish investment bank and multi-asset broker headquartered in Copenhagen, operating under a banking license supervised by the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority and subject to EU frameworks such as MiFID II and CRR/CRD. It offers trading and investing across global markets in cash equities, ETFs, bonds, foreign exchange (spot and forwards), listed options and futures, FX options, and contracts for difference via its SaxoTraderGO (web/mobile), SaxoTraderPRO (desktop), and API connectivity, serving retail, professional, and institutional clients and also supplying white-label solutions to third parties. The firm uses agency or principal execution depending on the instrument and publishes an order execution policy and conflicts-of-interest disclosures; client assets are held in segregated accounts. Cash deposits are covered by the Danish Guarantee Fund for Depositors and Investors up to the statutory limit, while securities are safeguarded under local client-asset rules. Pricing is tiered by account level and market, with commissions, spreads, and financing charges varying by instrument; other costs can include currency conversion, market data, and custody or platform fees. Minimum funding requirements and product availability vary by region, and services are not offered in certain jurisdictions, including the United States. For EU/EEA retail clients trading CFDs, leverage caps and negative balance protection apply under local implementation of ESMA product-intervention measures. The group is majority owned by Geely Financials Denmark A/S, with Sampo plc among significant minority shareholders, and publishes audited annual reports and regulatory disclosures. Trading leveraged products involves high risk and may result in losses exceeding initial investments on non-retail or non-CFD products.
