Direct Fund Model

To safeguard the interest of the investors, PMEX has introduced a unique Direct Fund Mode (DFM). Under this arrangement, the customers can deposit their margins directly with the Exchange, as well as, take withdrawal directly into their bank accounts without the involvement of broker(s). The DFM empowers the customers to get complete control over their funds at all times and restricts the role of the brokers primarily to servicing the existing customers and soliciting new businesses.

Under the DFM, all the existing trading account(s) who have traded after June 30, 2020, will be issued a 24 Digit Sub- Collection Account (SCA) at MCB. This SCA will be tagged to the trading account(s).

The SCA will be a non-checking virtual account and will only be used for the allocation of funds into PMEX designated trading account(s). Neither Customers nor PMEX will have control over the virtual account.

The SCA will reflect in the customer’s profile in Back Office (BO) application.If a customer holds multiple trading accounts, SCA will be issued and tagged against each separate trading account(s).

In case any inactive customer intends to re-activate his/her trading account, the respective broker(s) will inform PMEX for the issuance of SCA. Issuance of SCA for the new or inactive trading account(s) may take up to 7-10 banking business days. Meanwhile, customers will be able to transfer their funds through the branch deposits mechanism.
