Effective from July 31, 2023, 8AM UTC, Canadian Customers will no longer be able to make any new deposits or enter into new contracts or increase any of their existing positions for all products and services. They can, however, withdraw or reduce their positions.
Canadian Customers who are implicated by these measures should take steps by September 30, 2023, 8AM UTC to wind down and manage their positions. Failing which, open positions in any margin products and derivative contracts, including the following products listed below will be liquidated and the liquidated funds will be available for withdrawal.
