Public register · Last sync 2026-08-06

Check a broker's regulatory status in five seconds.

Search 36 entities by name, website, registry ID or regulator. Where a regulator has published a warning about a firm, this register links straight to that regulator's own notice — so you can read the primary document, not our summary of it.

How statuses are assigned

Four fixed levels. Counts below are live totals from this register.

Full assignment rules →
Danger
10
Regulator has published a consumer warning

A named regulator has published a warning notice about this firm telling consumers it is not authorised and to avoid dealing with it. We link to the regulator's own notice in every case.

Warning
16
Named on a public regulator alert list

A regulator has published a list naming this entity — typically because it appears to be acting in a capacity that requires registration and is not registered. Being listed is not itself a finding of wrongdoing by a court, but it is a public signal from the regulator.

Caution
03
Licensed, but with material caveats

The firm is licensed somewhere we can verify, but part of the business sits under weaker supervision — an offshore entity, leverage far above Tier-1 retail caps, or a register entry that does not cover everything the firm advertises.

Verified
07
Licence confirmed on a Tier-1 register

We located the firm on at least two Tier-1 regulators' own public registers and found no published warning against it at the date of our last check.

Danger is only ever assigned where a named regulator has published a consumer warning notice about the firm, and every such record carries a link to that notice. Warning is only ever assigned where an entity appears on a regulator's public alert or registration-deficient list. We do not assign either level on the basis of user complaints alone.

Report a broker to the register

If a firm blocked your withdrawal, demanded a fee before releasing funds, or is trading under a licence number that belongs to someone else, tell us. Reports are read by a person and checked against public records. We never publish an accusation on the strength of a single unverified report — but reports are how we decide what to check next.
