Editorial notice to check first

On 4 September 2024, ASIC cancelled the AFS Licence (AFSL 412871) of FXOpen AU Pty Ltd, citing inadequate human resources for delivering financial services and breaches of the 'key person' condition (ASIC media release 24-194MR; licence had been held since 12 December 2011). FXOpen AU applied for review with the Administrative Review Tribunal on 25 September 2024; the appeal process remains underway. FXOpen continues to operate under FCA UK (FXOpen Ltd, FRN 579202) and CySEC (FXOpen EU Ltd, CIF 194/13) authorisations.

Public-review checklist

1Separate broker brand reviews from reviews of the exact legal entity that would hold your account.
2Look for repeated patterns in recent public reviews: withdrawals, support response, slippage, platform outages and account closure.
3Treat review-site scores as directional, because dissatisfied users and marketing campaigns can both distort the sample.
4Check regulator registers, official warnings and account terms before relying on public sentiment.
5Compare complaints with your own use case: account size, funding method, product, platform and country.
