Annual interest on free margin offered by IFC Markets

IFC Markets is a regulated broker, considered by many traders as an excellent alternative to invest in global markets, based primarily on trust. Trust is a fundamental aspect of establishing a lasting and beneficial relationship with its clients. Trust is based on transparency in all services offered, allowing anyone to know in detail everything they need to know before investing. The broker offers a highly promising trading environment with state-of-the-art trading tools and excellent trading conditions. The ability to create instruments that perfectly suit your style, low costs with spreads starting from 0.4 pips, no hidden commissions, are just some of the features of a leading broker in the industry.

In addition to providing clients with transparent and excellent trading conditions, the broker constantly invests in various promotional initiatives, primarily created to benefit traders in their operations. Recently, IFC Markets launched a very unique initiative: “Annual interest on free margin.” This promotion allows traders to earn extra profits on the funds not used in their accounts!

In fact, many traders often:

  • Decide to take a break from trading to avoid being constantly glued to the computer.
  • Strategically do not use a portion of the funds in their accounts.
  • Due to having a job, are unable to dedicate constant time to trading.
  • Due to unforeseen circumstances, are unable to invest in trading.

To support its clients, the broker has created this initiative that perfectly adapts to such circumstances. In summary, traders will receive interest on the free margin in their accounts every month. Traders do not need to register separately; the promotion will be automatically activated on any active IFC Markets account.

  • The interest on free margin that a trader can receive will be calculated and credited monthly.
  • The extra funds can be used by the trader without any restrictions.
  • The promotion has no minimum or maximum deposit requirements or restrictions on the calculated interest amount.

Terms and conditions of the offer

To take advantage of the benefits of this initiative, traders must carefully read and accept the regulations. Additionally, to earn profits on the free margin, traders must meet minimum trading requirements.

  • The interest will accrue on the free margin (funds not used in trading). The formula to determine the free margin is as follows: Equity (current balance, taking into account constant profit/loss of open positions) – Used Margin.
  • The percentage of monthly accrued interest will be calculated based on the trading volume.
  • Interest will be calculated daily. The annual interest calculation represents the sum of daily interest rates starting from the account state at 00:00 CET.
  • At the end of each month, the total accumulated extra funds will be credited to the trader’s account.
  • Islamic (Swap-free) accounts and IFCM Invest accounts are not eligible for this offer and will not receive any extra funds from the interest on free margin.
