Refco Forex Limited was the Hong Kong subsidiary of Refco Inc., once one of the world's largest commodity and futures brokers, headquartered in New York. The firm held an SFC licence for leveraged foreign exchange trading, catering to retail and professional clients seeking access to leveraged FX markets in Hong Kong. Refco collapsed spectacularly in 2005 following the disclosure of a massive accounting fraud by its CEO, Phillip Bennett, resulting in one of the largest bankruptcies in U.S. history at that time. The Hong Kong entity consequently ceased operations as part of the global unwinding of the Refco group.
