IFC Markets regulator labels

Regulator labels are starting points for verification, not proof that the same protection applies to every account or country.

  • BVI FSC
  • Regulation: The broker is regulated by the British Virgin Islands Financial Services Commission (BVI FSC) under license SIBA/L/14/1073, which provides investment-business oversight.
  • Segregated Accounts: Client funds are held in segregated accounts, separate from the broker’s operational funds, ensuring that clients' money is protected in the event of the broker's financial troubles.
  • SSL Encryption: The broker uses SSL encryption to protect sensitive data during transactions and account logins, ensuring a high level of security for clients’ personal and financial information.
  • Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): For added security, IFC Markets supports two-factor authentication on accounts, ensuring that only authorized users can access their trading platforms and account details.
