Broker safety knowledge base
1
Start from the official registry
Do not rely on license images shown on a broker website. Open the regulator registry and check legal name, license number, status, and permissions.
2
Entity names must match
A brand may use multiple operating entities. Account opening pages, client agreements, and payment entities should align with the licensed entity.
3
Permissions matter more than labels
Some records only indicate company registration or limited services, not permission to offer leveraged FX or CFD products to retail clients.
