Management Commentary
"The lead-up to and market reaction following mid-June's Brexit referendum led to an increase in volatility which resulted in GAIN's Q2 2016 retail revenue per million tracking roughly 10% above our Q1 2016 levels," remarked Glenn Stevens, Chief Executive Officer. "In addition, retail volume generated from the indirect business represented 48% of total retail OTC trading volume in the quarter," Mr. Stevens concluded.
