Review methodology
Every review is built from the same record, so the same questions are answered for every broker in the same order.
What a review covers
Regulation and licences, safety of funds, trading conditions, account types, platforms, markets, deposits and withdrawals, the company behind the brand, and support. Each section states what the record holds and what it means for a reader. Where the record is silent, the review says so rather than filling the gap.
Where the facts come from
The broker's own published material, and the public registers of the regulators it names. Each record carries the date it was last checked. Claims a broker makes that cannot be verified are reported as claims.
How it stays current
Records are rechecked on a rolling basis and whenever a reader or a broker reports a change. A material change to a licence, a score or a fee is logged in the record's change history with the previous value, the new one and the reason.
