Price Plans Saxo Capital Markets UK Price Plans: Saxo Capital Markets UK offers clients the freedom to choose the FX and equity pricing structure that they feel is best suited to their needs. FX Volume Price Plans The FX Volume Price Plans offer typically tighter, more variable spreads with a post-trade commission applied. Commission charges per USD million traded vary from USD20 to USD60 per million traded and correspond with prospective total trade volume per month. Commission rates and corresponding monthly FX volume are detailed below.

* Cumulative USD equivalent volume across all currency pairs on a monthly basis
The FX60 (USD60 per million traded) price plan is applied to all Standard accounts by default. To change to FX30 (USD30 per million traded) or FX20 (USD20 per million traded) price plans clients should contact us on +44 20 7151 2100 or email
[email protected]. Where price plans have a minimum cumulative monthly commission requirement it is important to note that if the minimum cumulative monthly commission requirement for that plan is not reached a client will be charged the shortfall. For example, a client who selects the FX30 (USD30 per million traded) price plan needs to meet minimum cumulative commission charges of USD600 per month which equates to USD20 million trade volume. If in one month the client trades USD8million, this would result in cumulative monthly commissions of USD240. USD240 is less than the monthly minimum of USD600 (in order to qualify for the USD30 level), the client will be debited the difference of USD360 (USD600 minus USD240). For full Forex terms and conditions, please visit the Trading Rates and Conditions section on our website. FX All Inclusive Price Plan The All Inclusive FX price plan allows clients to trade without a post-trade commission as all
Saxo Capital Markets – Rates & Conditions
Price Plans charges are built into the price/spread. This plan typically provides a slightly wider but more consistent spread width throughout the trading period. There are no post-trade commissions and no minimum monthly volume or commission requirements. Clients can transfer their accounts from our standard FX Volume Price Plans to the All Inclusive Price Plan by contacting us on +44 20 7151 2100 and via email
[email protected].
Equity Active The Equity Active Price Plan is designed for active equity traders who anticipate executing 100 trades or more per calendar month on Stocks, ETFs and Single Stocks CFDs. Clients on the Equity Active Price Plan will benefit from lower per trade commissions. If a client is on the Equity Active Price Plan and does not execute 100 trades in a calendar month, the account will revert to standard commission rates. Clients can transfer their accounts to the Equity Active plan by calling their Account Manager.

The target spreads listed are our best possible spreads used in normal market conditions. Under certain market conditions, - such as over the release of key economic figures, during periods of volatile market conditions, and during the sometime illiquid European night time - spreads may be wider and auto execution limits may be lowered or disabled. For Forex trades below the Commission Threshold listed, a small ticket fee of USD 10 is added to the trade to cover administration costs.
Leverage available - margin requirements With Saxo Capital Markets it is possible to leverage FX positions up to 100:1 (1% margin) on the notional value of the position. Margin levels are tiered based on USD notional amounts, the higher the notional amount potentially the higher the margin rate. The tiered margin requirement is calculated per currency pair. Example 1: You have deposited 10,000 EUR on your trading account with Saxo Bank. You buy 250,000 EURUSD, as you expect EUR to increase in value against USD. The trade ticket on your trading platform will display the margin required for making the trade as: 2,500 EUR (250,000 EUR * 1.10 = 275,000 USD) or (275,000 USD * 1% = 2,750 USD / EUR @ 1.10) Example 2:
Saxo Capital Markets – Rates & Conditions
Forex Trading Rates & Conditions You have deposited 250,000 EUR on your trading account with Saxo Bank. You sell 10M USDCAD, as you expect CAD to increase in value against USD. The trade ticket on your trading platform will display the margin required for making the trade as: 200,000 EUR (1% * 3M USD + 2% * 2M USD + 5M USD * 3%) or (30,000 USD + 40,000 USD + 150,000 USD) = (220,000 USD / EUR @ 1.10). The DEFAULT margin requirements by currency pair are listed under the Forex Trading Conditions tab in the trading platforms and can also be viewed under 'Margin & Trading Requirements'. For further explanation of the above methodology, please click here. Margin requirements may be changed without prior notice. Saxo Capital Markets reserves the right to increase margin requirements for large position sizes, including client portfolios considered to be of very high risk.

Depositary Receipt fees - US It is standard practice for US depositary receipts to charge an annual administration fee up to USD 0.05 per share depending on the issuing depositary bank. The intent of the fee is to cover costs for the banks that take on the operational processes necessary to issue and trade the depositary receipt line. Typically the fee is deducted when dividend payments are made, however, in case the depositary receipt does not pay a dividend or did not include the custodial fee in their dividend events, the fee will be administered through fee-only events. The dividend fee is stipulated in the Deposit Agreement between the depositary bank and the company based upon industry standards. The Deposit Agreement is filed with the SEC and is readily accessible by the public. The fee per depositary receipt is not dependent on the total amount of dividend being paid but the amount of shares held. SEC Section 31 Fees for US Shares Saxo Capital Markets passes on to clients the SEC Section 31 fee of $22.40 per million (0.224 BP) on US exchange stock SELL transactions where client orders are entered directly into the underlying market. This fee applies only to US exchanges. To read more about Section 31 visit: http://www.sec.gov/answers/sec31.htm Stock Transfer Out fee Transfers of Stock from a Saxo Capital Markets trading account to an alternative account in the same name will be subject to a stock transfer out fee, which will be charged as follows: DK Stocks: 25 EUR per ISIN (max. 160 EUR) Other Stocks: 50 EUR per ISIN (max. 160 EUR) All information in this document is subject to change.
