Hi, thanks for visiting my website. My name is Krissy Jones and I’m a wife, mother of three and a serial, award winning entrepreneur who has founded and managed projects in retail, forex, education and media. I am also an experienced forex trader and founder of a successful, regulated forex broker called Fair Forex. I have also founded a forex services media site called The Forex Library, where I am an unpaid author of educational articles and news related to forex trading. My career began in health and social care, initially training as a social worker and then becoming the youngest ever Registered Home Manager at the age of 21. One of my proudest achievements was to improve the standard of care in the home I had responsibility for from poor to outstanding in just one year.
Throw me to the wolves and I’ll come back leading the pack
ABOUT ME
Following this I next trained as an assessor and teacher, and then went on to set up and grow two successful training companies, one of which was to become a large national training provider. I then became the Chief Executive of Bright International in 2010, a business that I founded with a £2,000 loan and grew to the value of £11m in under two years. Since then, I founded Fair Forex and Fair Global Media who owns The Forex Library both of which are in the forex industry.
As you will see if you read the My Story section on my website, my pathway to success has been an interesting one but my experiences have led me to the position I am in today as a successful entrepreneur with business interests in a number of fields. My experiences have made me stronger, having the ability to get through any hard times and quickly use both successes and mistakes as positive learning tools.
I am a philanthropist with a particular passion in helping families and children who are living in poverty. I am a volunteer at The LA Food Bank and also fundraise for and sponsor families and children living in poverty. In England I used to be a voluntary mentor for The Princes Trust where I enjoyed supporting young people with their new business ventures.
Outside of work, I enjoy fashion, fitness and socializing! I live in Beverly Hills with my husband, three children, and Taffy our dog.

PROJECTS
My projects have included:
Fair Forex – I founded Fair Forex after becoming disillusioned with the lack of transparency and fairness provided by other forex brokers. Fair Forex provides regulated forex broker services to clients that are trader focused, transparent and fair. This means that they provide a trading environment that never trades against their clients. In addition, Fair Forex will always only charge fair spreads, commissions and fees to trade and withdraw funds. Established in 2018, the company operates worldwide with offices in London, Asia, Los Angeles and the Dominican Republic. Thanks to its experienced management team, it has gone on to become a highly successful broker, trading $billions monthly and is rated 5 stars by over 500 clients on Trust Pilot.
Fair Global Media -is a media company based in California that owns a forex news and education site called The Forex Library. The Forex Library delivers up to the minute breaking news, real time coverage of events that effect the forex markets and market analysis to forex traders who trade commodities, crypto, indices, forex and equities. The Forex Library also provides online forex education. The vision from its founders was to also create an extensive and educational platform for Forex traders which caters to all types of traders, from beginners to experts. The Forex Library believes in providing a whole new experience when it comes to self-education and trading. From extensive lectures to the latest and most up to date financial news, The Forex Library is any traders tool to success.
Bella Blanc– came from my love of interior design and beautiful furniture I am currently working on growing an international luxury lifestyle brand with a flagship store.
Philanthropy– I have a particular passion for helping people living in poverty and a strong belief that no person should ever go hungry. I volunteer for the LA food bank which is a non-profit organization helping to fight hunger in Los Angeles. They source and acquire food and other products and distribute to needy people. As a volunteer I help with food distribution both on the road and at food pantry’s. This involves helping maintain crowd control and social distancing, greeting clients, packing food bags for distribution, restocking and giving out food to clients. My family and I also do fundraising for and sponsorship of children and families living in poverty.
