Frequently asked questions
Is forex trading regulated in Bermuda?
We have not confirmed a dedicated retail forex licensing framework for Bermuda. Other company, banking, securities or cross-border rules may still apply.
Does a foreign licence protect a trader in Bermuda?
Only when the account is legally contracted with the licensed entity and the licence permits the relevant service. A broker brand may operate several entities, and the protections follow the entity that signs the account agreement, not the brand.
