Following
the announcement made in September 2008, the Swiss and Danish banking
authorities have given the necessary authorisations for the acquisition
of Synthesis Bank by Saxo Bank.
Synthesis Bank specializes in different types of trading, one of which
is FOREX. This would be helpful for those interested in various types of
trading or investing as they could keep their accounts in one place.
However, the company and web site appear to spend much less time and
effort on FOREX than on other investing areas, such as stocks and
futures.
You can open an account online, through the mail, or
via telephone. However, with all three methods, you must still send
certain documents, including copies of your passport and proof of
residency, to Synthesis in Switzerland via regular mail – different than
many other sites. The bank takes deposits via wire transfer or foreign
currency, free of charge.
While there is a free demo account,
it’s good for only 20 days, not 30 like many other sites. It’s easy to
sign up – just fill in your contact information and the site immediately
sends an email to your account. The demo account is extremely helpful
in showing you how the Synthesis Bank system works and to help you
become familiar with the trading environment. The company does call you
to help you convert to a permanent account if you so choose.
If
you have trouble, help is available via 24-hour live chat and through
email. This reviewer tested the email system twice, and both times, had a
response within a couple of hours. The website is active in five
languages, but the platform is download only.
To help educate
investors, Synthesis Bank holds a series of free “Trading Bar” workshops
in Switzerland. The company also offers free daily emails with trading
information and analysis.
PIPS range from 2 points for major currencies to 4 for some others.
While this site does include much important information, there appears
to be some important information missing, such as withdrawal information
and fees.
The company caters to four different types of investors:
• Private clients
• Institutional investors
• Asset Managers
• Business partners with client networks
