These fields help structure safety research. They do not prove that an account is protected, available or suitable for any country.

Funds protection note
FOREX.com is a regulated broker under FCA in the UK, CFTC in the United States, ASIC in Australia, and MAS in Singapore. This takes account of financial standards that must be fulfilled very strictly. Client funds are deposited in top-tier banks separately to ensure safety. Again, some types of retail traders in jurisdictions are not able to have access to negative balance protection.
