Remediation Process
General In terms of the Financial Intelligence Centre Amendment, Act 1 of 2017, we are required to identify and verify our clients’ personal information, known as the KYC or Know-Your-Client process, as well as obtain sufficient information on the client’s activities and the purpose for which our services are used.
Why do we need to collect KYC information? Due to legislation we need to know who our clients are and how they intend to use our services. We therefore need to ask clients to update their client information and potentially supply supporting documents, e.g. to verify source of funds and wealth.
Do we ask all our clients for this information? Yes absolutely. We are obliged to check and update a client’s personal information and documents, not only when we begin a new relationship with them, but also throughout the client relationship – no matter who the client is, or how long they have been with us.
What if a client who should be terminated holds cash and has open positions? If the client has not closed any open positions and withdrawn the cash on the account, DQM will notify the Head of Sales to close the open positions. Once the positions have been closed, Sales will refer the account to either Applications or Support for the payment process to be initiated. Funds will be transferred to the most recent account used for funding.
Is the client allowed to renew their documents after termination? No, if the account is already terminated then a new account will need to be opened and new documents submitted.
What documentation should be collected from the client? The kind of documentation needed varies depending on client type, client relationship and personal circumstances.

Trading & Reporting
Allocation of dividends on CFD Positions
Dividends on CFD positions are booked into your account on the Ex-date with value on Pay-Date. If you are eligible to receive dividends when holding a position in a CFD, DMA will allocate cash to your account.
- Please note that if you are holding a short position in the CFD, the amount will be deducted from your account.
- You can find details of these movements in the “CFD Cash Adjustments” report in the “Account” tab.
Calculating CFD Financing
- Due to the fact that CFDs are margin products and long positions result in the borrowing of funds by the client, financing costs apply to the borrowed amount if the long position is held overnight. Intraday CFD positions are not charged financing.
- As they are subject to a mark down, short positions may also result in financing costs, which may result in the interest credit becoming an interest debit.
- Financing is charged on CFDs on single stocks and stock indices, but not on expiring CFDs (commodity and Forex CFDs, and some stock index CFDs)
- The financing commission is calculated daily and charged on a monthly basis.
Calculating Margin on a Client Account
Margin Utilisation is calculated as = (100 * Used for margin) / (Account value + Other collateral – not available as margin collateral).
Calculating Conversion P/L
Stocks are cash products, so if you buy a USD-denominated stock (for example from a CHF denominated account), your profit or loss will also be influenced by how the USDCHF exchange rate changes while you have the position open.
Example: Let’s examine the example of a position in the United States Oil Fund, LP (USO:arcx) where 46 shares were bought on a CHF account on the 11th of December 2014. By the 16th of February, the ETF had fallen from 22.69 to 19.62 – meaning the client was losing on the trade itself.
Besides that, a further loss has been accrued due to the CHF strengthening against the USD over the two months since the shares had been bought, so now the rate applied on the conversion back into the account was less favourable (0.92661365 vs. 0.97438770 when the position was originally opened.) These rates take into account any conversion cost applied.
Enabling short-selling of Contract options for a Client
Writing/selling Contract Options requires activation of an advanced option profile. For this, we need your written confirmation that you are aware of the risk involved in shorting options and have relevant experience. Kindly contact DMA Support to request the advanced option profile.
This is only applicable for Contract Options (meaning stock options, options on futures and indices) – you can short-sell FX Options without activating the advanced option profile.
Please send this through to trading@dma.co.za.
Margin Closeouts
Clients who trade in leveraged products will utilise available margin to hold the relevant positions. The available margin level will depend on the cash balance and available collateral offered through any cash equity positions.
- Clients will receive margin calls (up to 100%) to their registered email, and through push notifications on their platform logins.
- DMA will allow a client to go over 100% margin for 47 hours. If the client stays over 100% for over 47 hours, DMA will automatically closeout all leveraged positions at market.
- If a client breaches the 150% margin utilisation level, DMA will closeout all leveraged positions at market – regardless of the aforementioned time period.
DMA Misdeal procedure
If a trade has been placed in error, the following must be done and communicated to DMA:
- Immediately counter the relevant trade. Example: Account is long 200 Sasol Ltd:
Misdeal is made and 200 Sasol Ltd shares are sold:
Immediately counter the misdeal by buying 200 Sasol Ltd shares:
- Notify trading@dma.co.za of the misdeal by indicating the account in question and the relevant trade that was placed in error.
- DMA will move the two lines (the original sell and the buy) to your error account for the two lines of the trade to settle.
- You will be required to settle the loss of the trade in the error account.
Net Free Equity
Net Free Equity (NFE) is:
The cash balance of your main trading account,
PLUS OR MINUS any unrealised profits or losses from open CFDs, FX Forwards and Futures on your main trading account,
PLUS the market value of any FX Options on your main trading account,
MINUS any margin required for financing open positions on your main trading account and sub-accounts.
- To avoid paying overdraft interest on your account you are required to hold sufficient cash collateral ensuring a positive Net Free Balance.
- Interest is calculated daily and settled monthly – within seven business days after the end of each calendar month.
- You can view the NFE in the “Interest Details” report of the “Account” tab.
Pulling Client statements on DMA Monitor
Trade.dma.co.za/monitor is a reporting platform that allows various client reports to be pulled. These reports can be defined in terms of dates, exported to Excel/PDF or viewed on the platform itself.
- Use the Search field to find and select your client:
- Select “Historic reports”:

Related Orders
Market Orders These are orders to buy or sell a specified instrument as soon as possible at the price obtainable in the market. BUY: When placing a Market Order to buy, the order is filled immediately (when the market is open), at the best available price for the specified amount. SELL: When placing a Market Order to sell, the order is filled immediately (when the market is open), at the best available price for the specified amount.
Limit Orders Limit Orders are commonly used to enter a market and to take profit at predefined levels.
When a Limit Order is triggered, it is filled as soon as possible at the price obtainable on the market. Note that the price at which your order is filled may differ from the price you set for the order – if the market’s opening price is better than your limit price. BUY: When Limit Orders to buy are placed below the current market price (passive order), it will be executed when the market reaches the price level specified. If the order is placed above the current market price (aggressive order), the order is filled instantly at the best available price below or at the limit price. SELL: When Limit Orders to sell are placed above the current market price (passive order), it will be executed when the market reaches the price level specified. If the order is placed below the current market price (aggressive order), the order is filled instantly at the best available price above or at the limit price.
Stop Orders Stop Orders are commonly used to exit positions and to protect against trading losses. It’s a resting order that will convert into a market order, once the order price has been reached. BUY: Stop Orders to buy are placed above the current market level and are executed when the market reaches the price level specified. SELL: Stop Orders to sell are placed below the current market level and are executed when the market reaches the price level specified.
Stop Limit Order A Stop Limit Order will be executed at a specified price (or better) after your specified Stop Price has been reached. Once the stop price is reached, the Stop Limit Order becomes a limit order to buy (or sell) at the limit price or better. A resting order, which will convert into a limit order with a separately defined limit, once the order price has been reached.
Trailing Stop Order A Trailing Stop Order is a stop order that has a trigger price which changes. As the market rises (for long positions), the stop price rises according to the proportion set by the user, but if the price falls, the stop price remains unchanged.
This type of stop order helps an investor to set a limit on the maximum possible loss, without limiting the possible gain on a position. It also reduces the need to constantly monitor the market prices of open positions. A resting order, where the order price is set at an initial level and a firm distance to market, which will allow the order price to move along with market movements opposite to the order direction, and which will convert into a market order, once the order price has been reached
Related (Contingent) Order
Several types of related orders are available:
“If Done”
An “If Done” order consists of two orders: A primary order that will be executed as soon as market conditions allow it, and a secondary order that will be activated only if the first order is executed.
“One Cancels the Other”
A “One Cancels the Other (O.C.O.)” order consists of two orders. If either of the orders is executed, the related order is automatically cancelled. 3-way contingent orders are where two orders are placed if a primary (If Done) order is executed. These orders are themselves related as “O.C.O.”

Treasury
Intermediary Bank Fees on Withdrawals
If your bank does not have a direct relationship with DMA’s bank (Crown Agents Bank (UK) [CAB]), your bank will need an intermediary/correspondent bank to facilitate transfers, a service for which the intermediary/correspondent bank will charge. The intermediary/correspondent bank then acts on behalf of the beneficiary bank (your bank).
The intermediary bank/correspondent bank is the bank that receives the bank transfer for your bank in the country of the sender (UK). Example: If you want to draw money from your trading account to your bank account in South Africa (FNB/ABSA/Standard Bank etc.), and there is no direct relationship between CAB and your bank, then the money is first transferred to the intermediary/correspondent bank for onward transfer to your bank and subsequent deposit into your account.
DMA transacts on a “shared costs” basis for withdrawals out of your trading account – meaning the charges are split between DMA and yourself. DMA will pay its bank charges and any other payment order costs, while you will bear the charges levied by any other banks (intermediary/correspondent, beneficiary bank etc.) and you will receive the balance.
Setting up a recurring Withdrawal
DMA offers the ability to set up a standing instruction on an account when it comes to withdrawals.
