Exness Compensation Fund

The Exness Compensation Fund is a financial safeguard established to provide protection to clients who are members of Exness in cases where a dispute resolution is needed. It is a part of Exness’ membership with the Financial Commission, an independent international organization focused on resolving disputes within the financial services industry. The fund acts as an insurance policy to cover client claims up to €20,000 per client if Exness fails to comply with a Financial Commission judgment. This fund is maintained through a portion of monthly membership fees and is held in a separate bank account to ensure fair and efficient compensation while promoting trader security and confidence.
