For brokers

How verify.trading assesses brokers.

Traders check us before they deposit with you. This page explains what a broker record is built from, how to ask for a correction, and why the outcome is not for sale.

Assessment model

A fixed model, applied the same way to everyone

01

Regulatory status

Public registers and warning lists, such as the FCA register and unauthorised-firm warnings, and equivalent authorities elsewhere.

02

Licences and terms

The regulators you list, the entity that serves the client, and your own published rules on leverage and licensing.

03

Documented actions

Court actions, sanctions and regulatory decisions from official sources, with the citation shown on the record.

Full detail is in the methodology. You can find your current record in Compare Brokers.

Policy

Independence and correction policy

We take no affiliate commissions from brokers, prop firms or educators, and rated entities cannot be our affiliates. Verdicts are computed from regulator records and are not for sale.

A record cannot be bought, improved or removed by its subject. A Caution rests on a documented regulator or court action and is revised only when the underlying record changes. If a record is inaccurate, contact us with a primary source such as an official register entry or notice.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Still stuck? Contact us.

How can a broker ask for a correction?
Use the contact page with the record you believe is wrong and a primary source, such as a register entry or an official notice. Corrections follow the same rules for every broker.
Can a broker pay for a better verdict?
No. We take no affiliate commissions from brokers and rated entities cannot be our affiliates. A verdict is computed from records and is not for sale.
What evidence is needed to remove a Caution?
A Caution rests on a documented regulator or court action. It is revised when the underlying record changes, for example when an action is formally withdrawn, and we need the official source to review it.
Which regulators do you look at?
Public registers and warning lists such as the FCA register, plus equivalent authorities in other jurisdictions where the broker lists a licence.
Do you review the client's entity or the whole group?
The entity that serves the client matters most, since it decides which regulator applies. Records name the entity and licence so they can be checked.

Questions about your record?

We read every message and will point you to the source or the rule behind a verdict.

verify.trading provides records and analysis, not investment advice; trading involves significant risk of loss. Absence of a regulatory action is not an endorsement, and absence from a regulator's list is not proof of authorisation.
