"The FXCM Group announced today that it has changed the name of its subsidiary, FXCM LLC to FXCM Futures LLC. The purpose of the name change is to avoid confusion between Forex Capital Markets LLC and FXCM Futures LLC.

FXCM Futures LLC is a Futures Commission Merchant (FCM) and will be offering exchange traded futures products. The firm has not yet started to accept clients."

Now this is what I call setting the standards in the industry.

Interactive Brokers (IB) has already been doing that for a long time - One platform, multi-asset class products. Another firm is MB Trading in California. FXCM's one stop shop all business model will work out nicely for themselves and clients. I can't wait to see how their platform looks after futures exchange traded products are added.
