          <title>Dukascopy Becomes the First Swiss Bank to Launch AI-Powered Trading via MCP</title>
          <description><![CDATA[
          <p><strong>GENEVA, Switzerland</strong> &amp;mdash; Dukascopy Bank today announced the launch of AI-powered trading through chat assistants, becoming one of the first Swiss banks to enable clients to interact with their trading accounts using AI.</p>

<p>Powered by Dukascopy&amp;rsquo;s new Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, the integration allows clients to connect AI assistants such as ChatGPT and Claude directly to their JForex trading accounts. Traders can execute trades, manage positions, analyze markets, and monitor risk by interacting with their preferred AI assistant.</p>

<p>The result is a new way to trade &amp;mdash; without traditional terminals, manual coding, or complex menu navigation.</p>

<p>Learn more at <a href="https://ai.dukascopy.com/">ai.dukascopy.com</a>&amp;nbsp;</p>

<p><em>&amp;quot;Technology has always been at the core of Dukascopy's DNA,&amp;quot; said Andre Duka, CEO of Dukascopy Bank. &amp;quot;For two decades, we have invested in building advanced trading infrastructure. Today, we are taking the next step by making that infrastructure accessible through AI.&amp;quot;&amp;nbsp;</em></p>

<h4><strong>Seamless Execution</strong></h4>

<p>With the new integration, traders can instruct their AI assistant in natural language to:</p>

<ul>
	<li>place market or pending orders</li>
	<li>analyze instruments</li>
	<li>calculate stop-loss and take-profit levels</li>
	<li>check account exposure</li>
</ul>

<p>The integration goes beyond market commentary. Requests such as &amp;quot;Close half of my gold position&amp;quot; are executed through the connected AI assistant.&amp;nbsp;</p>

<p>Connected AI assistants gain secure access to account information, trading operations, and order management, enabling end-to-end workflows such as proportional position opening and combined market analysis across instruments.</p>

<h4><strong>Built on an Open AI Standard</strong></h4>

<p>The service is powered by the MCP, an emerging open standard that enables AI assistants to securely interact with external applications and services.</p>

<p>The connection process takes only a few minutes and does not require programming knowledge. User passwords remain protected and are never shared with the AI assistant.</p>

<p>By adopting an open standard, Dukascopy allows clients to use the AI tools they already prefer, while maintaining the security and reliability expected from a Swiss financial institution.</p>

<h4><strong>Available Today on JForex Demo Accounts</strong></h4>

<p>The AI trading integration is available immediately for JForex <strong>demo</strong> accounts, allowing traders to explore the full functionality in a risk-free environment using virtual funds.</p>

<p>Support for live trading accounts is planned for summer&amp;ndash;autumn 2026, bringing the same workflow to real-market trading.</p>

<h4><strong>A Glimpse Into the Future of Trading</strong></h4>

<p>The launch represents another milestone in Dukascopy's broader strategy of combining financial services with cutting-edge technology.</p>

<p>As AI assistants become an everyday tool for millions of people worldwide, Dukascopy envisions a future where interacting with financial markets is a seamless and exceptional experience.</p>

          <title>Dukascopy Launches Its New Flagship Banking App</title>
          <description><![CDATA[
          <p>Dukascopy Bank has officially launched its new flagship mobile application, marking a major milestone in the bank's ongoing digital transformation. Designed with its growing global client base of more than 400,000 users in mind, the new Dukascopy Bank App unifies banking, payments, cards, foreign exchange, investments and more into a cutting edge mobile experience.</p>

<p>The launch follows a strategic decision by Dukascopy's management to completely redesign its mobile ecosystem, reinforcing the bank's commitment to delivering a world-class digital banking experience for clients worldwide.</p>

<p><em>&amp;quot;For 20 years, Dukascopy has been recognized as a technological pioneer in fintech and online trading,&amp;quot; said Andre Duka, CEO of Dukascopy Bank. &amp;quot;Today exceptional mobile experiences are no longer optional&amp;mdash;they are essential. Our new flagship app reflects our vision of making Swiss banking more accessible, more intuitive, and more powerful than ever before.&amp;quot;</em></p>

<p>The new Dukascopy Bank App replaces the bank's legacy Connect 911 and Swiss Mobile Bank applications, bringing together the full spectrum of Dukascopy services in one streamlined platform. With the new app, clients can:</p>

<ul>
	<li>Open accounts remotely using secure video identification</li>
	<li>Order and manage virtual or plastic Visa, Mastercard or Chinese payment cards</li>
	<li>Send and receive international payments</li>
	<li>Exchange currencies with competitive rates</li>
	<li>Buy, sell, and manage investments 24/7 directly from their mobile devices</li>
	<li>Access multilingual human customer support 24/7 through secure encrypted chat</li>
</ul>

<p>Earlier this year, the bank launched the Swiss Forex App, providing free access to real-time market prices, technical analysis, economic news, and market insights for traders and investors around the world.</p>

<h2 class="h4">Designed Today. Built for Tomorrow.</h2>

<p>The launch of the new flagship app represents only the first phase of a broader evolution. Dukascopy plans to introduce regular feature updates, enhanced functionality, and new digital services throughout the coming months. Development team is already underway on the final stage of the bank's mobile transformation: a dedicated next-generation trading application designed specifically for JForex accounts.</p>

<h2 class="h4">Availability</h2>

<p>The new Dukascopy Bank App is available now for download on iOS and Android devices.</p>

<p><strong>New clients</strong> can open an account and access Dukascopy's banking and investment services directly from the app.</p>

<p><strong>Existing clients</strong> can sign in immediately using their current Dukascopy credentials and begin managing their accounts through the new app.</p>
