Hifinsa: a serviced address at 167 Macquarie Street
Hifinsa publishes 167 Macquarie Street in Sydney, which is a serviced office address rather than a floor of its own.
What the team found
Hifinsa publishes Macquarie' Hse L 13, 167 Macquarie Street, SYDNEY NSW 2000 as its office. The address is in Sydney. Nothing outside carried the company's name, and the floor the address points to is a shared or serviced office suite rather than a floor the company occupies itself.
A serviced address is not evidence of anything dishonest, and it is not evidence of an office either. It is a registered address and a desk that any number of companies can hold at once, so it tells a client nothing about whether Hifinsa has staff there.

Who else uses this address
2 other brokers in this set publish an address on Macquarie' Hse L Macquarie Street. In a large commercial building that is unremarkable, though it is worth knowing when you are comparing firms that look unconnected.
Across the 2 other visits to that address, the team could not get access twice. Among them are FINSA and Tickmill.
What Sydney looks like across the set
Sydney accounts for 156 of the addresses the team has visited. Across the 155 other visits to the city, the team confirmed an office 3 times, found nothing 15 times and could not get access 137 times.
The reports either side of this one in Sydney are Huayi, HuiFeng and HV, and reading two or three together is usually more telling than any single visit.
Reading the checks together
In short, the building was the one the address names, there was no sign for the company outside and reception could not say either way. No single check settles an outcome on its own, which is why each one is listed above rather than folded into a verdict.
What this outcome means
Access restricted. Building or security restrictions prevented the researcher from completing the planned checks.
A field survey confirms only what was observed at the stated address and time. It does not verify regulatory status, client-money handling, trading conditions or financial strength. The photographs are the team's own, taken at the location on the day, and may be cropped for privacy. Read how surveys are conducted.
