NFA keeps choking the forex industry - aggressively raises member fees
- NFA is doing an amazingly effective job at spitting in the well it drinks from. In fact NFA behaves not as a regulator but as a controlling shareholder of its members - as it basically does whatever it wants when it comes to requirements and 'membership' fees. NFA just declared a new 'dividend' for itself by aggressively raising membership fees which for some strange reason will now be in the region of 2% of forex broker's gross (!) revenue instead of being a flat yearly fee like up until now. To the best of my knowledge NFA is the only forex dictator regulator charging percentage of volume and/or revenue instead of just charging same membership fee from everyone.
