Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block] | Acquisitions and Disposals Acquisitions in Fiscal 2015 The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the operating results of the acquired businesses from the dates of acquisition. The total amount of goodwill and intangible assets, in connection with the current year acquisition, that is expected to be deductible for tax purposes is $1.6 million as of September 30, 2015. G.X. Clarke & Co. Effective January 1, 2015, the Company acquired all of the partnership interests of G.X. Clarke & Co., an SEC registered institutional dealer in fixed income securities. G.X. Clarke is based in New Jersey, transacts in U.S. Treasury, U.S. government agency and agency mortgage-backed securities, and is a FINRA member with an institutional client base consisting of asset managers, commercial bank trust and investment departments, broker-dealers, and insurance companies. The purchase price payable by the Company is equal to G.X. Clarke's net tangible book value at closing of approximately $25.9 million plus a premium of $1.5 million, and up to an additional $1.5 million over the next three years, subject to the achievement of certain profitability thresholds. In conjunction with the acquisition, the name of G.X. Clarke was changed to INTL FCStone Partners L.P. The acquisition agreement includes the purchase of certain tangible assets and assumption of certain liabilities. For the acquisition, management made an initial fair value estimate of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of January 1, 2015. The Company believes that due to the short-term nature of many of the tangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, that their carrying values, as included in the historical financial statements of G.X. Clarke, approximate their fair values. The Company finalized its purchase accounting estimates with the assistance of a third-party valuation expert. The portion of the purchase price representing the initial premium of $1.5 million and the contingent consideration of $0.1 million has been assigned to the customer base and software programs/platforms intangible assets (see Note 9). The Company has assigned useful lives of 5 years for the customer base and software programs/platforms intangible assets. As part of the net cash paid, the Company and G.X. Clarke established two escrow accounts totaling $10.0 million, related to an Adjustment Escrow and Indemnity Escrow. The Adjustment Escrow, of $5.0 million, related to potential purchase price adjustment obligations was released, during year ended September 30, 2015, upon determination of the final tangible book value of net assets of G.X. Clarke. The Indemnity Escrow, of $5.0 million, relates to potential claims made by the Company for indemnification in accordance with the terms of the acquisition agreement and is to be released immediately following the twenty-four month anniversary of the closing date of the acquisition. The remaining escrow balance is included in ‘other assets’ in the consolidated balance sheet. In addition, as part of the net cash paid for the acquisition, the Company has deferred payment of $5.0 million, in accordance with the terms of the acquisition agreement. The deferred payment shall be equal to $5.0 million less the aggregate net loss, if any, incurred for the twelve full fiscal quarters commencing after the closing date. The deferred payment amount shall be due and payable shortly after the twelfth full fiscal quarter commencing after the closing date. The deferred payment is included in ‘accounts payable and other accrued liabilities’ in the consolidated balance sheet. As discussed above, the terms of the acquisition agreement include a contingent payment of an additional purchase price of up to $1.5 million, based on the performance of the acquired business. The contingent consideration, which in no event shall exceed $1.5 million, is expected to be paid in two payments. The first payment is expected to occur after the first four full fiscal quarters commencing after the closing date. This payment is estimated to be $0.5 million, if the acquired business generates at least $5.0 million in after-tax net income over the first four full fiscal quarters after the closing date. The second and final payment is expected to occur after the twelfth full fiscal quarter commencing after the closing date. This payment is estimated to be $1.0 million, if the acquired business has generated accumulated after-tax net income of greater than $30.0 million over the twelve full fiscal quarters commencing after the closing date. Effective July 1, 2015, the Company merged three of its regulated U.S. subsidiaries, including INTL FCStone Partners L.P., into INTL FCStone Securities, and the surviving entity was renamed INTL FCStone Financial, and is dually registered as a broker-dealer and a futures commission merchant. Per ASC 805-10-50-2 and S-X Rule 10-01(b)(4) pro forma results of operations for revenues, net income and net income per share are to be presented for the current year, up to the end of the current quarter and for the comparable period of the preceding year, as though the companies had been combined at the beginning of the period being reported on. The following unaudited pro forma information presents a summary of the consolidated results of operations for the Company as if the acquisition had occurred on October 1, 2013. The unaudited pro forma consolidated results of operations are based on the Company’s historical financial statements and those of G.X. Clarke and do not necessarily indicate the results of operations that would have resulted had the acquisition actually been completed at the beginning of the applicable period presented. The pro forma results reflect the business combination accounting effects from the acquisition including adjusting for non-recurring interest expense on subordinated debt incurred by G.X. Clarke, acquisition related expenses incurred by the Company and G.X. Clarke, and income taxes of G.X. Clarke, which was treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes prior to the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma consolidated results are not indicative of the results of operations in future periods.

Tradewire In December 2012, the Company acquired certain institutional accounts from Tradewire Securities, LLC (“Tradewire Securities”), a Miami-based securities broker-dealer servicing customers throughout Latin America and a wholly owned subsidiary of Tradewire Group Ltd. These accounts were transferred to INTL FCStone Inc.’s broker-dealer subsidiary, INTL FCStone Securities. As part of the transaction, the Company hired more than 20 professional staff from Tradewire Securities’ securities broker-dealer business based in Miami, Florida. These professionals provide global brokerage services to a wide range of customers, including hedge funds, pension funds, broker-dealers and banks located in Latin America, the Caribbean, North America and Europe. The consideration to be paid for the acquisition of institutional accounts from Tradewire Securities consists of three annual contingent payments and a final contingent payment and the original estimated present value was estimated to be $5.6 million as of the acquisition date. The purchase price for the acquisition is not expected to be material to the consolidated financial statements. The present value of the estimated total purchase price, including contingent consideration, is $4.4 million (see Note 11). The Company obtained a third-party valuation of the intangible assets and contingent liabilities, and allocated the purchase costs among identified intangible assets with determinable useful lives and goodwill. The goodwill and intangible asset recognized in this transaction of $2.8 million and $2.8 million, respectively, were assigned to the Securities segment.
