SYDNEY, Australia, Aug. 24, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FXCM Group, LLC (‘FXCM Group’ or ‘FXCM’), the leading international provider of online foreign exchange (FX) trading, CFD trading, cryptocurrencies and related services, announced the addition of Australian shares to its fast-growing, commission-free^ Single Share CFD offering.

The announcement follows FXCM Australia Pty. Limited’s recently launched, ‘Save Money, Sleep Better’ campaign, offering zero rollover fees# to Australian customers trading Stock Indices, Gold and Silver. Over the past year, the firm has focused on expanding its product offering and boosting client service as part of a brand refresh.
