Some people just prefer to not worry about whether their money is being held in a safe place or not. There are risk-lovers and there are risk-haters, but the best traders will take the risk as long as they get paid for it. |

Yes, unfortunately there are some bad apples out there which is why it is important as a community to infomr each other about those.

One more important factor is keeping all the client's funds in segregated accounts, so they can be protected.

As far as I'm aware, this is simply a separation between account, however that doesn't deny access from the firm to take money out of it. |

When it comes down to it, how do you know they really are segregated?
