Integral Forex, a branch of Integral Securities (Turkish: Integral Yatirim Menkul Degerler), is a Turkey-based financial trading services provider specialized in foreign exchange (forex) and contract for difference (CFD) brokerage.
The company was founded in 1998 and is headquartered in Istanbul, Turkey.
The company is registered with and regulated by The Capital Markets Board of Turkey (CMB) (Turkish: Sermaye Piyasasi Kurulu).[1][2]
History[edit]
The company was originally established in Turkey in 1998 by Sabri Hakkı Ulukartal. After initially starting Forex trading services as Ulukartal Kiymetli Madenler, the company acquired 2 stock exchange brokerage firms registered with and regulated by the CMB, and he founded Ulukartal Holding. The company has been admitted as a trade member to both the (IAB) Istanbul Gold Exchange (2002) and (DGCX) Dubai Gold & Commodities Exchange (2006).[3][4]
The founder Sabri Hakkı Ulukartal graduated from the Boston University, Financial School of Management with an honorary degree. He has worked tirelessly in contact with the governing bodies regarding the legal and regulatory framework of the Forex trading business to be properly established in Turkey, but he faced the tragedy of an untimely death at the age of 43.[5][6]
The parent company Integral Securities is one of the first 7 forex firms to be licensed temporarily by the CMB in 2011.[7][8] Integral Securities is one of the first 3 forex firms to obtain a full forex license in Turkey by the CMB in March 2012.[9] The company also has derivatives trading licenses with the Borsa Istanbul (BIST).[10]
