Safety summary
The available evidence supports a favourable assessment. Positive factors include a tier-one licence, segregated client money and audited accounts (Not prominently disclosed). Risk factors include no compensation scheme. Regulation can improve oversight and complaint options, but it does not prevent trading losses or guarantee that every dispute will be resolved.
Client money is held separately from the firm's own money, at Not prominently disclosed. That separation is what makes your balance recoverable if the company fails, rather than part of the pool its creditors divide up.
Covered by No statutory Australian investor compensation scheme equivalent to FSCS, which pays eligible clients up to its limit if the firm fails owing client money.
