Saxo Capital Markets Wins Best CFD Provider at Investors Chronicle & Financial Times Investment Awards

London (ots/PRNewswire) - Saxo Bank, the online multi-asset trading
and investment specialist,
today announces that Saxo Capital Markets, its UK subsidiary, has won
Best CFD Provider at the prestigious Investors Chronicle & Financial
Times Investment Awards 2014.

The awards, independently voted for by the readers of the Financial
Times and Investors Chronicle, aim to identify and recognise firms
which deliver excellence in the investment industry.

Saxo Bank's footprint in listed products is growing rapidly and the
bank has seen a five-fold increase in equity and CFD trading volumes
since 2009. This growth follows a period of significant and ongoing
investment in developing a truly multi-asset platform which underpins
the bank's commitment to offer its clients access to the best trading
and investment opportunities available. Today, through its platforms,
Saxo Bank offers multi-asset trading capabilities with more than
30,000 financial products including FX, stocks, CFDs, commodities,
futures, contract options and single stock options.

Commenting on the award win, Soren Nedergaard, Head of CFD's and
Listed Products at Saxo Bank A/S, said: "We are thrilled to have
received this award in a highly competitive market such as the UK.
The award is testament to our ability to extend the excellence we
pioneered in FX over two decades ago to listed products where our
clients are taking an increasingly active approach.

"Our strategy is to continue to raise the bar for excellence in
trading and investments by enhancing our platform, expanding our
product range and offering our clients access to the best investment
opportunities in the most efficient way, regardless of which asset
class or instrument they choose to trade."

The recognition comes at the end of the week in which Saxo Bank
offered its clients the opportunity to trade some of its most popular
NASDAQ listed stocks and CFDs at zero per cent commission to mark
Thanksgiving celebrations.

"In the spirit of Thanksgiving, we are delighted to give thanks to
our clients by offering them the opportunity to trade our most
popular NASDAQ listed equities at zero commission," Nedergaard said.

The offer is available to clients for the duration of Thanksgiving
Week.
