NEW YORK, June 24, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FXCM Inc. (NYSE:FXCM) ("FXCM" or "the Company"), a leading online provider of foreign exchange (FX) trading and related services, announced that FXCM systems and operations functioned without any material adversity during Brexit.

"FXCM is happy with the risk management steps we took including our decision to gradually raise margins as we did heading into the vote," said Drew Niv, CEO of FXCM. "The FXCM Trading Station operated normally throughout the Brexit market volatility and we are extremely pleased with our liquidity providers, our staff who worked through the night and our clients who continued to heed our warnings during these historical market movements."

FXCM's risk committee will continue to closely monitor and hedge the Company's exposure, margins will remain elevated until we see the market return to more normal liquidity levels and we hope to relax margin requirements in the coming days.
