Bedminster, NJ - September 2, 2008 - GAIN Capital Group, a market leader in the online foreign exchange (forex or FX) industry, has been named to the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing companies for the fourth consecutive year.

GAIN Capital Group, which owns the popular FOREX.com web site for retail foreign currency trading, was ranked 41st among the fastest-growing financial services firms, and was also ranked #770 overall among the entire Inc. 5000 list. The annual rankings, compiled by Inc. magazine, lists the fastest-growing, privately held companies in the United States based on each firm's four-year cumulative revenue growth percentage (and not on total amount of revenue).

GAIN's rank on the Inc. 5000 list is based on the company's 458.4 percent cumulative increase in revenue since 2004. In addition, GAIN has reported six consecutive years of top-line growth above 65 percent.

"Our fourth consecutive appearance on the Inc. 5000 list is a great opportunity to celebrate the ongoing growth of our company, and validates the effort that the entire GAIN Capital team contributes every day," said Glenn Stevens, chief executive officer of GAIN Capital Group. "This recognition of GAIN's sustained growth by Inc. magazine serves as an encouragement for all of GAIN's employees as we continue to globally build our business and brand."

GAIN Capital operates FOREX.com, a popular web site with retail foreign exchange trading customers. Forex is the most heavily traded market in the world, with a daily volume that exceeds $3.2 trillion, according to the Bank for International Settlements (BIS). Among retail investors, forex trading has gained widespread acceptance over the past several years. According to U.S. research firm Aite Group, average daily trade volume in the retail forex market alone increased 500 percent from 2001 to 2006, reaching an estimated $77 billion per day in 2007*.
