Our strategy of nonstop development implies both improvement of key performance indicators and a series of achievements which we always share with you. However, we firmly believe that the major achievement this year is all our numerous friends, clients, and partners. In 2017, the number of live accounts at our company swelled to over 7,000,000.

Third season of partnership with Dragon Racing kicks off!

InstaForex is glad to announce that we have been the official partner of Dragon Racing for the third year in a row, starting from the very beginning of the Formula E auto racing.
Any contract with a sports team should reflect the philosophy and principles of the company. And it was hard to find a squad more suitable for our purposes than the Dragon Racing Formula E team. It is known that several countries, from Norway to China, plan to completely ban autos with internal combustion engines. It means that new technologies and progress will be oriented towards Formula E. InstaForex considers the ecological aspect to be very important and when we talk about Formula E, we stress the importance of both technological novelties (such as electric engines) and their influence on the environment. It is the ecological aspect that allows Formula E to take place in the center of the world's largest cities unlike Formula 1 that is held in suburban areas. Formula E strives to be close to its fans just like InstaForex tries to be close to its clients.

InstaForex is sure that Dragon Racing with its energetic leader (young media entrepreneur Jay Penske) and talented drivers (Jerome d'Ambrosio and Neel Jani) will remain the engine of Formula E development and believes that the team will show excellent performance in the new season.

Daria Kasatkina: hard way to top 10

For over 30 years, a small US town of Indian Wells with population of just 5,000 people turns into a tennis hub where all sports celebrities gather every March.

The grand Indian Wells Masters tournament, that took place on March 7-18 this year, has the Premier Mandatory status. Such status is considered to be the most prestigious after the Grand Slam and the Final tournament of the year.

For our company, the Indian Wells Masters 2018 is a particularly important event as Daria Kasatkina, the brilliant young tennis player and brand ambassador for InstaForex, took part at the tournament.

We expected some great results from Daria, as she managed to beat four top-10 tennis players in the past few months. However, we could not even imagine that she would demonstrate such tremendous performance. Daria has defeated three top-15 tennis players in a row, paving the way for the semi-final where she competed with Venus Williams, the legend of the world tennis and holder of 49 titles in the singles category.

The US athlete, being almost two times older, more experienced and rated higher than Daria, was obviously determined to win the game. The competition was really tough and exciting. As a result, Kasatkina secured a victory with the score of 4:6, 6:4, 7:5. Thus, she qualified for the final of Indian Wells Masters 2018.

The tournaments' final caused a sensation, as it featured two young and ambitions sports talents. We have said a lot about Daria's achievements, and as for her opponent, 20-years old Japanese Naomi Osaka showed her potential in the very first game of the tournament beating the tennis star Maria Sharapova.

Interestingly, two days before the tournament, Daria posted a video where she teaches Naomi how to hit a tweener, one of the most spectacular and difficult tennis shots. Daria's ability to strike tweeners has alreadyimpressed the global sports community.

Having qualified to the final of Indian Wells Masters 2018, Daria has earned the 11th place in the WTA rating which means that she is world No. 11 in tennis and the top seed of Russia. In case of victory in the final, Daria would have made it into the top 10, reaching the 9th place.

However Osaka secured a victory in straight sets: 6:3, 6:2. Nevertheless, we are sure that Kasatkina's spirit is strong enough to withstand this failure and to the contrary, it will give her confidence and strength for grand victories in the future. Meanwhile, qualifying for the Indian Wells Masters final is a great achievement that has already etched the name of Daria Kasatkina into the history of the world tennis. There are a lot of tournaments ahead, and we sincerely wish Daria sparkling and undoubted wins!

Spectacular way: Liverpool in Champions League semi-final!

On April 10, the InstaForex team was watching the quarter-finals of the Champions League with bated breath. An official partner of the company, the legendary English Liverpool Football Club, won a hard-fought battle in an away match against Manchester City and reached the semi-final of the most prestigious European club tournament.

According to the draw of UEFA, the opponent of the Reds in the semi-final would be Italy's AS Roma that downed Barcelona in a home match with a score of 3-0. But Liverpool beat Manchester City at Anfield with exactly the same score, leaving little chance for the Citizens to enter the next stage.

Needless to say, both opponents are extremely strong and serious about winning. Roma got into the final of the Champions League only once in far 1984 (at that time, the tournament was called the European Champions Cup). Liverpool is a five-time winner of the Champions League, and the team of Jurgen Klopp certainly won't refuse to compete for the championship in the tournament finals this year.

This means we are in for a hot semifinal, the first part of which we will see already on April 24, when the Reds receive Roma at Anfield. InstaForex sincerely wishes good luck to the coaches and players of both teams. Eventually, let the best win. And we hope Liverpool will become the strongest.

Liverpool FC: Mohamed Salah’s spring records

 

This spring has brought two stunning records to the legendary Liverpool FC, InstaForex official partner. And these achievements were made by one person – Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah.

Currently, the Egyptian is one of the top scorers in the Premier League. He also has become the first African to score 30 goals in a single EPL season.

His most outstanding achievement got him in the LFC history and in the history of the English football in general. After scoring 6 goals in the March games, he was named the best player of the month. This way, Salah has become the first player in the Premiership to be named the best player of the month three times in one season.

If Mo Salah continues to demonstrate brilliant performance in the remaining 4 games of this season, Liverpool fans will witness more amazing records. In a mere month, we will see if the Egyptian will be able to become the top scorer of the EPL and fight for the Golden Boot

The team's leader  Aleš Loprais together with his crew that included Ferran Marco Alcayna and Petr Pokora came first in both the truck category and the overall standings of the African rally in Morocco.

The race in the truck category was the toughest one. Eight stages, thirty three trucks and almost 2,500 kilometers stood between the team and the finish line. Nevertheless, InstaForex Loprais Team withstood this challenge and won with a 23-minute lead over the silver winners.

"This race is a part of our Dakar 2019 mission and it's really nice to win like this. It was a very difficult African adventure, but a successful one, a golden one. I'd like to say thank you to the guys in the cabin, to our mechanics and also all our partners for their support," Aleš Loprais said after the finish. The crew solved technical problems successfully. They even managed to deal with three tire punctures that occurred during the second stage. Thus, the team consolidated its lead in the overall standings with the result of 31:02:08 hours.

“Punctures are just part of this difficult competition. I can't wait for the next challenge," Petr Pokora added.

InstaForex congratulates the team on the well-earned victory in the Morocco Desert Challenge and wishes that the competitive spirit and morale of the crew get stronger during the summer season ahead of the 2019 Dakar.
