“Saxo has continued to see significant growth over the past year, welcoming 236,000 new trading clients, and have expanded features in response with the rollout of the consolidated view of industry news and proprietary research from its analysts, which has proved very popular, along with the launch of a dedicated AI crypto tool that alerts traders to their exposures to help alleviate risk from any potential volatility. We remain committed to providing clients with quality execution with significant price improvement and no asymmetric slippage.”
