OANDA FXTrade
Corporate History
OANDA was founded upon the belief that technology, primarily the Internet, would have a significant impact on the "globalization" of the worldwide marketplace and, henceforth, a significant impact on the demand for currency-related products and services. The Company, a Delaware corporation, was established in 1996 and is headquartered in New York City with offices in Zurich and Toronto. OANDA is a registered Futures Commission Merchant (FCM) with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and is a member of the National Futures Association (NFA ID #0325821).
OANDA was co-founded by Dr. Michael Stumm, a professor of Computer Engineering at the University of Toronto, and Dr. Richard Olsen of The Olsen Ltd., a leading econometric research and development firm.
