What counts as a regulated broker here?

A broker is counted as regulated when it appears on the register of a reputable authority such as the FCA, CySEC, ASIC, NFA, BaFin, FINMA or MAS. Regulation is recorded from the official register, never assumed. Offshore-only registrations are shown on the profile but do not qualify for this ranking.

How are regulated brokers ranked?

By real engagement: the outbound clicks each profile sends to the broker’s official site, throttled per visitor and bot-filtered. A single labelled Featured seat is the only paid placement. The order cannot otherwise be bought.

Does regulation guarantee safety?

No. Regulation lowers certain risks and requires oversight, but it does not remove market risk. CFDs and forex carry a high risk of loss. This ranking is informational and is not investment advice.
