Is Trade.com safe?

Safety summary

Client money is held separately from the firm's own money, at Major global banks. That separation is what makes your balance recoverable if the company fails, rather than part of the pool its creditors divide up.

Negative balance protection applies, so a losing position cannot take the account below zero and leave you owing the broker money.

Covered by ICF up to €20,000 for eligible CySEC clients; FSCS protection for eligible UK clients; no statutory investor compensation scheme under Mauritius entity, which pays eligible clients up to its limit if the firm fails owing client money.

Regulatory coverage

Trade.com is connected with 4 recorded licences: CySEC (tier one), FCA (tier one), SEC/FINRA (tier one) and FSC (Mauritius) (tier two).
