Why was an additional fee deducted from my transfer?

Alpari does not take any additional commission for transferring your funds from our company bank account to your Alpari account. The amount we transfer to client trading accounts is the amount which was transferred to our company bank account.

Usually, the additional commission was charged by one of the other banks involved in the wire transfer.

International banking law allows clients making wire transfers to ask their bank to take commission in one of the following forms:

• OUR: The entire commission is paid by the sender (Alpari). Please be aware that if correspondent banks are involved in the wire transfer, then the amount you receive will be the amount you requested less the commissions charged by correspondent banks.
• SHA: The commission is split between the sender and the recipient (the client).
• BEN: The entire commission is paid by the recipient (the client).
