Belize financial regulator the International Financial Services Commission (IFSC) has issued a warning against retail forex broker TradeFXP, operating from website tradefxp.com.
According to the IFSC, TradeFXP shows on its website that it is holds a securities license from the IFSC, which apparently it does not. According to the IFSC, what is being displayed by TradeFXP (see below) is a forgery.
TradeFXP is indeed a company properly incorporated in the UK less than a year ago. According to UK regulatory filings, its sole director and shareholder is Indian national Zakeer Hussain.
The following is what we found on TradeFXP’s ‘About Us’ page:
The complete Belize IFSC warning reads as follows, and can also be seen here.
