What the registers show

Every entry below was retrieved from the regulator’s own public register. The licence number links straight to it, so the check takes you about a minute to repeat.

The entity name is reproduced exactly as the register prints it. A name that differs from the brand you see on the website is normal — brokers often trade under a brand and hold the licence in a subsidiary — but it is worth reading closely, because it is also how a firm borrows another’s licence.

Where this licence reaches

A licence regulates a firm in the jurisdiction that issued it. It does not travel. Below, each register entry is measured against the 15 countries this publication covers, using only the coverage the register itself records.

Financial Conduct Authority 522157

The register records this licence as covering GB. Measured against our 15 countries, it reaches none of them.

No evidence of cover

Taking Nigeria as the example: This Financial Conduct Authority licence does not, on the evidence of the register itself, extend to Nigeria. A licence issued by Financial Conduct Authority regulates the entity in its home jurisdiction; it does not by itself make the broker supervised in Nigeria, and Nigeria's local protections or compensation schemes will generally not apply.

Verification history

Every check we have run against this broker, newest first. The record is append-only: each run adds a row and nothing already written is ever edited or removed, so a result that later turns out to be wrong stays visible next to the one that corrected it. The database enforces that with a trigger, not with a policy.
