Hi,I have searched all over for brokers that will allow CFD trading on Emerging Market Exchanges - but to no avail !There must be someway to access these markets through an online broker. Does anybody already have access to these markets (South Africa, Latin America etc), through an online broker - if so then pls help ..... can you please tell me which broker you use ?Many thanksTheKing

Don´t know about retail brokers, but I found EM CFDs to be a pain in the ass operationally - settlement problems, irregular dividends etc. Depending on the market, short performance is especially difficult to arrange. I´d be surprised if there´s enough demand to make it worthwhilefor anyone to offer an online service.

HelloI read an article a year ago about CFDs trades, what are their main interests? I heard that it can help in case or Buyoutn but I suppose that some professional investors can only do that for speculation without having in mind (and at the bank) the will tobuy something.
