The Exchange GAP/Eighth Wonder of the World

Recently in 2014 the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg have been posting a lot of news about the latest FX Transparency concern. The state of California Teachers Pension Fund is suing their financial institution handling there FX for $200M in what they deem undisclosed fees hidden in the spreads. The State of Arkansas is suing for $300M. America’s largest hedge fund Black Rock is also suing. It was reported Washington State was awarded a settlement for $11M. .

The BIS:

Another Recent report by the BIS (Bank of International Settlement) also estimates the Gap to be around the mid 3% range, putting the average daily gap at $144,000,000,000 per day. The BIS is the worlds Central Bank responsible to receive and audit all central banks around the world.

No surprise to us, the BIS finally gave a realistic explanation for this huge GAP in the $4T per day market.

There are multiple layers of Non-Transparency within the majority of FX Conversions. The BIS states that the retail institution does not receive meaningful accounting of the FX transaction. They describe the accounting of the FX transaction as a contagion. Like the spread of a disease, the accounting permeates to all levels.

If the firm that handles your FX transactions is not receiving meaningful accounting, how can YOU? It is impossible for you to get correct accounting downstream from a contaminated river.

However, IMS is the first organization to provide the POC report, which cleans the upstream contagion and offers True Accounting of your FX transactions and giving s you 100% of the value of YOUR MONEY!
