    Regulation of Retail Forex
    RIN 3038-AC61
    90% of the account will go offshore, mostly to the United Kingdom
    -
    Thousands of high educated jobs will be lost
    -
    An industry worth over $1 billion gone, loosing millions in taxable revenue.
    -
    The proposal does not fix fraud, the subject the rule tries to adjust. Battle against unlicensed FDMs and
    IBs fix the fraud, not 10 to 1 leverage.
    - 100 to 1 leverage is very popular. Traders simply will not accept 10 to l leverage.
    - Unregulated dealers from around the world will also benefit.
