"Establishing a presence in the Tri-State area and New England is an exciting moment for us as we continue to advance USForex and the delivery of our hassle-free and tech-savvy platform to customers in new markets coast to coast," said Michael Ward, CEO, North America and Europe for USForex. "Part of our mission is to partner with businesses and consumers by providing them with the tools and strategic guidance they need to mitiate the risk associated with managing international payments."

A wholly-owned subsidiary of OZForex and headquartered in San Francisco, USForex is currently licensed in 16 states, along with operations in an additional four states where licensing approval is not required.
