Editorial notice

On 4 May 2020, the consumer-facing brand Binary.com rebranded as Deriv. The broker's corporate parent is Regent Markets Group, which predates the consumer rebrand. This review reflects the broker under its current Deriv consumer brand; historical material may still reference Binary.com or the Regent Markets corporate parent.

Regulation checklist

  1. 1Record the exact legal entity named in the account agreement.
  2. 2Search the relevant regulator register for that entity, not only the brand name.
  3. 3Check whether the permission covers your product, country and client category.
  4. 4Read any InvestorTrip editorial notice and follow the cited context in the full review.
  5. 5Save the source URL and date checked before depositing.
