Swissquote: turned away at the lobby at Currency House Building

What the team found

Swissquote publishes Office No 3, Level 9, Currency House Building, Tower 2, DIFC, PO Box 125115, Dubai, UAE as its office. The address is in Dubai. Nothing outside carried the company's name, and the building's security turned the team away at the lobby without confirming whether the company is a tenant.

Being refused at the desk is common in a managed building and is not evidence either way. It does mean nobody would confirm that Swissquote is there, and nothing visible from the street does either.

The checks

The checks that decided this outcome, from the visit checklist.

What the published address commits to

Swissquote publishes a room and a post box together. The room is the part a visitor can check, and it is the part the team went to; the box only tells you where letters end up.

What Dubai looks like across the set

Dubai accounts for 41 of the addresses the team has visited. Across the 40 other visits to the city, the team confirmed an office 13 times, found nothing twice and could not get access 25 times.

The reports either side of this one in Dubai are SWORD CAPITAL, Tattvam and Tickmill, 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.
