Do not invest more money than you can afford to lose.
Latvia-based brokerage Dukascopy Europe said on Tuesday it has integrated a modern technology for video identification that was developed by its mother company Dukascopy Bank. The new technology enables users to sign up and open an account using video identification via mobile messenger Dukascopy Connect.
“With this technology, Dukascopy Europe has introduced higher limits for current and potential clients while reducing the time required for opening an account, which can also be done during the weekend,” the company said in a notice.
Dukascopy Bank introduced video identification in September last year.
Dukascopy Connect provides an instant mobile payments system and a social network in one place with support for messaging, voice&video calls, and file sharing. It is available for devices with iOS and Android operating systems.
Dukascopy Europe is the EU-regulated unit of Swiss forex bank Dukascopy Bank. It was acquired by the bank in May 2011. Dukascopy Europe provides access to forex, bullions, binary options, contracts for difference (CFDs), as well as to the Swiss Foreign Exchange Marketplace (Dukascopy Forex trading platform) on the same conditions which are available to the clients of Dukascopy Bank, thanks to a white label agreement with its parent.
Dukascopy Bank is licensed as a bank and as a securities dealer by Switzerland’s Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA). It was set up in 2004 and is based in Switzerland’s Geneva, but also operates globally through offices in Zurich, Riga, Kiev, Moscow, Kuala Lumpur and Hong Kong.
