The product launch comes as there has been demand from online brokers for solutions that can abstract data from their trading reports into an accepted format to meet EMIR reporting requirements. Rani Sawaf, CEO and Founder of Centroid24 explained to Finance Magnates that although the firm focuses on risk management, changing regulations are an "essential part of risk management”. He said: “We decided to incorporate EMIR reporting which was highly anticipated due to market demand”.
For Centroid24, the EMIR reporting tool expands the firm’s product line as it is being made available as both a standalone solution as well as integrated within their existing risk management system. According to Sawaf, the EMIR reporting tool went live in Q2 on a private basis with limited basis and is now being used with existing customers of the risk management solution as well as standalone by other brokers.
Connecting with Sawaf about the product launch, Finance Magnates took the occasion to learn more about the current state of affairs of broker risk management and changes since January’s Swiss franc move caused a ripple in the industry.
FM: Has risk management among forex brokers changed since the Swiss franc crisis?
The past months, during my many visits at FX brokers and conferences, a popular question that managers often asked me in particular as a Swiss Company, is how our software solution could have prevented the losses that many brokers suffered at the unpegging of the EURCHF?
The majority of FX brokers operate without computation of a real-time risk measurement
The question in my opinion already reveals that for many brokers – at least for the ones that fortunately are still in place- not much has changed in terms of risk management thinking. My first answer tends to be that there is no magic system that can anticipate market moves and that this is not the role of a risk management tool to do so in the first place. Risk management should be a mind-set to start with, a discipline on its own.
The first goal of risk management is to bring transparency to the top management level, identify where the company could be damaged, and propose measures to mitigate the risks. When it comes to transparency, it become apparent that many brokers lack of a methodology, tools and sometimes the know-how to point out where the risks are.
Today, still the majority of FX brokers operate without computation of real-time risk measurement and often manage position by position rather than having a portfolio approach.
FM: What is the difference between risk management practices between forex and CFDs?
Herewith I mean additional elements - besides the financial performance of company - that can influence the price of a stock such as a future fine (e.g. Volkswagen, Transocean) or the death of the CEO/Founder of a company (e.g. Apple) or the loss of a major potential deal, etc.; all those elements can hardly be anticipated in the same way as news on interest rates by the Fed.
So in terms of risk management, a constant assessment of the company’s market and financial situation along with analysis of the underlying industry is essential as part of the risk management strategy. Typically, portfolio managers work with recommendations that translate in the end to weights and percentages reflecting different sectors and single stocks, that can be assessed in what you should or should not keep in your book.
FM: What trading products do you currently believe are providing the best risk/reward opportunity for market making brokers?
RS: In general, instruments with high volatility are likely to generate the highest returns for the market makers, such as silver or oil. Nevertheless market makers with a portfolio approach do not really decide on what positions their clients should take. They can to some extend influence the choice of trades by promoting certain types of instruments with e.g. lower spread, bonuses, but at the end this influence remains marginal.
Normally, the higher diversity on instruments a market maker offers, the better risk-return it can achieve
Normally, the higher diversity on instruments a market maker offers, the better risk-return it can achieve. In addition, using risk measures such as portfolio Value-at-Risk (VaR) enables a broker to leverage the potential of diversification effects by carrying different asset classes and thus engaging in more positions. So the engagement of additional volume, still within the defined risk limits, is more likely to generate higher revenues.
Rani Sawaf, Founder and CEO, Centroid24
This is what our customers are experiencing using the Centroid24 solution. With a diversification effect that can amount up to 20 to 30% of the total VaR, a broker can keep positions in their book and generate additional volume and thus revenues; while maintaining their risk limits as well as complying with the capital adequacy ratio requirements.
FM: Where do you see the forex brokerage market moving?
RS: It is incontestable that in the past 2 years, the forex brokerage industry has seen an increasing pressure in their profit margin.
First, the level of competition has dramatically increased, with a high number of brokers entering the market in the last 3-4 years, which had as a consequence a direct negative impact on the spreads and commissions. On the client side, brokers now face more experienced traders and sophisticated trading systems. Finally, the increased local and international regulation lead a bottom line to higher costs.
As a result, brokers have to produce more, put more efforts and take more risks to maintain the same return.
In the case of pure A-Book brokers, the trading volume requirement to reach an acceptable return will continue to rise. If not possible, some brokers probably will consider to opt next to an A-Book a B-Book activity.
As a conclusion, brokers will need to take more risks to maintain the same amount of return. I believe that we will see an increase in awareness for the risk management practice that will lead to a better management of the increasing risks.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.

In this conversation, we speak with Aydin Bonabi, CEO and co-founder of Surveill, a firm focused on fraud detection and AI-driven compliance tools for financial institutions.
We start with Aydin’s view of the Summit and the challenges brokers face as fraud tactics grow more complex. He explains how firms can stay ahead through real-time signals, data patterns, and early-stage detection.
We also talk about AI training and why compliance teams often struggle to keep models accurate, fair, and aligned with regulatory expectations. Aydin breaks down what “good” AI training looks like inside a financial environment, including the importance of clean data, domain expertise, and human oversight.
He closes with a clear message: fraud is scaling, and so must the tools that stop it.

Interview with Jas Shah
Builder | Adviser | Fintech Writer | Product Strategist
In this episode, Jonathan Fine sat down with Jas Shah, one of the most thoughtful voices in global fintech. Known for his work across advisory, product, stablecoins, and his widely read writing, Jas brings a rare combination of industry insight and plain-spoken clarity.
We talk about his first impression of the Summit, the projects that keep him busy today, and how they connect to the stablecoin panel he joined. Jas shares his view on the link between fintech, wealthtech and retail brokers, especially as firms like Revolut, eToro and Trading212 blur long-standing lines in the market.
We also explore what stablecoin adoption might look like for retail investment platforms, including a few product and UX angles that are not obvious at first glance.
To close, Jas explains how he thinks about writing, and how he approaches “shipping” pieces that spark debate across the industry.
