According to a report by leaprate, FCA-appointed special administrator for Alpari UK insolvency case, KPMG, has announced that they will start distributing client's funds after May 31 as clients who intend to get their money back from Alpari UK will have to agree their client money entitlement on KPMG Client Portal by May 31, 2015.

Payout

KPMG expected initial payout will be around 51%, which means 51 cents for each Dollar in the client's funds, with further payout will be done later if there are still leftover clients' funds or through FSCS investor compensation's funds. In addition, KPMG mentioned that initial payout will not be distributed to clients with distributable amount of less than 200USD (balance lower than 400USD) due to economical consideration. Those small clients will still have their right to claim, but payment is expected when further distributions have been declared. The same goes for several Alpari UK clients that has not been granted access to the Client Portal (thus cannot agree their client money entitlement on KPMG Client Portal by May 31).

As it was known, Alpari UK declared its insolvency following explosive consequences of Swiss National Bank's removal of Euro peg in January. Around a hundred thousand clients affected around the world. At the time, UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) swiftly appointed special administrators from audit company KPMG to handle the case, including selling out Alpari UK assets and managing client's funds compensations. However, after more than three months since then, Alpari UK clients has not yet received their money.
