Jurisdiction gap — read this before you deposit

Holds a tier-1 licence (FCA, ASIC, BaFin) alongside 2 other live entities. Which one your account sits under determines the protection you get.

A group can hold a tier-1 licence and still onboard you through an offshore entity in the same structure. The licence protects clients of the entity that holds it — not every client of the brand. Check which company name appears on your own client agreement, then look that company up in the table below.
