The claims ledger

Claims specific enough to be falsified — and the ones that remain the venue's own measurement.

Testable claims

  • ThinkMarkets institutional page offers white label, API, liquidity and customisation solutions and states 'We're a multi-regulated global broker with 10+ licences' (https://www.thinkmarkets.com/en/institutional-sales)
  • ThinkMarkets is 'established in 2010 and licensed by the FCA, ASIC, CySEC, and DFSA' per its own help centre (https://www.thinkmarkets.com/en/help-centre/about-thinkmarkets)
  • Entity licence numbers per the group's own materials: TF Global Markets (Aust) Pty Ltd holds AFSL 424700 (au/support/regulation); TF Global Markets (UK) Ltd is authorised and regulated by the FCA, FRN 629628 (Costs and Charges PDF, June 2024); TF Global Markets Int Limited is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority (Seychelles), Firm Reference Number SD060 (footer of thinkmarkets.com/en/institutional-sales)

Claims we cannot verify from outside

  • 'Top-tier liquidity, automated execution, and robust technology built for speed' is the firm's own marketing characterisation

Explicitly refused
A firm that publishes its own negative space — who it refuses, where it is not licensed — is materially easier to diligence than one that doesn't. The refusal list is treated here as disclosure, not as a defect.
