Casio to Release Compact G-SHOCK Offering Workout-Oriented Convenience

The First Square-Shaped Watch in the Sports-Driven G-SQUAD Line

TOKYO, June 15, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Casio Computer Co., Ltd. announced today the release of the GBD-200, a new addition to the sports-driven G-SQUAD line in the G-SHOCK family of shock-resistant watches. Inheriting the iconic square-shaped case design of the very first G-SHOCK, these compact new watches offer convenient functionality for workouts as well as everyday use.

GBD-200

The GBD-200 boasts a new, smaller profile design for the case, which is 2.0mm slimmer, 8.8mm shorter, and 3.4mm narrower compared to the predecessor GBD-100. To make the watch look even slimmer, the case, bezel and other parts are carefully designed to appear flat when viewed from the side. The band is made of soft urethane to provide outstanding ventilation and flexibility and ensure a snug fit on the wrist. Holes near the lugs that fasten the band to the case ensure breathability, helping to shed perspiration and give the watch a comfortable, airy fit that is great for exercise. The precision 5mm hole-spacing employed for the band allows for precise length adjustments, as well.

The GBD-200 also boasts outstanding functionality. Just pair with a smartphone via Bluetooth® to adjust distances captured by with the watch’s acceleration sensor using smartphone GPS. When the user adjusts this once, the watch will then measure distances with even higher degrees of accuracy,* even when not connected to a smartphone. The watch also measures running pace and comes with an Auto lap feature that automatically keeps track of times over a set distance. When used with the dedicated G-SHOCK MOVE app, the watch offers great support for daily workouts, allowing users to check life logs with data on step counts and calories burned, activity logs, and more, right on the  smartphone.

*In comparison with distance measurements made by preceding Casio models using the accelerometer alone. Depends on the accuracy of the smartphone’s GPS function as well.

GBD-200-1, GBD-200-2, GBD-200-9

FXCM launches ‘Client First, Trader Driven’ initiative, expanding product offerings and focusing on client service

LONDON and SYDNEY, Australia and JOHANNESBURG, South Africa, June 14, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FXCM Group, LLC (‘FXCM Group’ or ‘FXCM’), the leading international provider of online foreign exchange (FX) trading, CFD trading, cryptocurrencies1 and related services, is launching an ambitious ‘Client First’ initiative that expands its product offering and boosts its client service as part of a brand refresh.

A key part of ‘Client First’ is a strong commitment to client service, as highlighted by its ‘client first, trader driven’ tagline in its new logo. FXCM has demonstrated this commitment so far in 2021, reporting that its average live-chat pick-up time was five seconds, while 100% of calls were answered in 45 seconds and emails replied to within a day.2

Over the past year the firm has rolled out popular and emerging products to the retail trading market, adding 79 products including share CFDs, cryptos1 and stock baskets across Europe, Hong Kong and USA. For example, a new stock basket product, Big China Tech (ATMX), combines the shares of Alibaba, Tencent, Meituan and Xiaomi, some of the biggest and most widely traded tech companies globally.

FXCM now offers multiple stock baskets to their retail clients, made up into the following: Big US Tech (“FAANG”), Esports & Gaming, Biotechnology, China Technology and China E-commerce, and now Big China Tech (ATMX). These baskets have proven to be popular with their clients and as a result the company is keen to proactively add new products and expand its competitive offering to reach a wider group of traders.

FXCM also enables its clients to invest in a range of globally listed companies such as Amazon and Tesla, large banks including Citigroup and JP Morgan and firms which have benefited from the work from home trend including Peloton and Zoom Video Communications.

Brendan Callan, CEO of FXCM, said: “We have been proactively rolling out new products, adding 79 products in 2021 so far and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. With the world drastically changing how it communicates in the past year, we’ve also ramped up resourcing in our client service team. It is paramount that our people connect with our clients on every level from the moment they start their trading journey. Our commitment to top-notch service fosters trust and we look to build a strong connection with our clients through each stage of the trading experience. Our approach is simple: when our clients want to trade something, it should be available on our platform and when they need support, our team is there to help them.”

The firm also won a number of awards in the past year, including the Best Zero Commission* Broker in the ADVFN International Financial Awards 2021 and the Best FX Platform at the 2021 Online Personal Wealth.

1Cryptocurrency products are only available to Professional and Eligible Counterparty Clients under FXCM LTD.

*Award granted to the FXCM Group by ADVFN in March 2021. FXCM can be compensated in several ways, which includes but are not limited to adding a mark-up to the spreads it receives from its liquidity providers, adding a mark-up to rollover, etc. Commission-based pricing is applicable to Active Trader account types.
