BGC Charity Day

Each year on September 11th, or Monday after, BGC Partners holds a charity trading day to mark the anniversary of the 9/11 Attack. Royals, politicians, celebrities, sports stars, etc. are invited to participate in trading, and 100% of the day's revenues are donated to charity. The event is held in London, New York, Paris & other BGC locations around the world.

Almost every year, a member of the Royal Family attend, raising money for their patronages. The event should not be confused with the ICAP's annual Charity Day in December.
(Location is London unless otherwise mentioned)
