GBE Brokers Acquires JFD Brokers Client Base And Intermediary Structures
GBE brokers Ltd. has announced a significant expansion of its footprint within the German-speaking financial market. The company is acquiring nearly all clients and intermediary structures of JFD Group Ltd., which operates under the brand JFD Brokers, through an asset deal.
This transaction includes client funds valued in the eight-figure range, alongside a four-digit number of client accounts. As part of the deal, selected members of the existing JFD Group team will also transition to GBE brokers, ensuring continuity and expertise.
Clients moving to GBE brokers will benefit from optimised trading conditions and an expanded suite of trading platforms. In addition to the widely used MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 platforms, GBE brokers also provides trading capabilities via TradingView. The integration of all key intermediaries is set to preserve crucial partner relationships. Furthermore, German-language support will be offered directly from GBE brokers' Hamburg branch, promising efficient communication channels, dedicated contacts, and prompt response times.
GBE brokers is recognised as one of the highest-rated brokers in the German-speaking region, having cultivated strong trust among both retail and institutional clients. A paramount focus for the company is the safeguarding of client funds. These funds are held separately from company assets in segregated accounts at Commerzbank AG, a prominent German bank. This arrangement is a characteristic of Tier 1 liquidity providers and institutional setups. Alongside statutory deposit protection under standardised regulation, balances up to €300,000 receive additional protection through Lloyd’s of London.
