What is an Axi Corporate Account?

Axi offers options to open trading accounts under Company, Trust, Foundation, Sole Proprietorship, Partnership, and, Joint Venture conditions.

How can I open a Corporate Account?

Please note that the application process for Corporate Accounts differs from individual trading accounts.

To start a CySEC Corporate account application, the client must submit a completed CySEC Corporate paper application form.

In addition, the EMIR Refit Excel file must be completed and included as part of the required documentation. This will be provided to you by your Account Manager.

For further information and guidance regarding the application process and required documents, please contact your Account Manager or Customer Support directly.
