Provider licence disclosure ·

StoneX Financial Ltd

FOREX.com's UK disclosure names StoneX Financial Ltd, FCA FRN 446717, and company number 05616586. These identify the UK entity, not every FOREX.com account worldwide.

Sources and scope

Source disagreement — unresolved ·

StoneX Financial Ltd

The scheme distinction is confirmed: eligible investment claims have a limit of £85,000 per person and firm, separate from the £120,000 deposit limit. FOREX.com’s UK page still states £120,000; its applicability explanation remains unresolved. We do not present £120,000 as blanket account protection.

Sources and scope

Client-protection evidence ·

StoneX Financial Ltd

The UK provider states that retail client money is separated from its own funds. This is a provider disclosure, not an independent bank-account audit.

Sources and scope

Provider licence disclosure ·

GAIN Global Markets Inc.

The international site names GAIN Global Markets Inc. and CIMA licence 25033. A country-to-entity allocation cannot be inferred from this website alone; current register matching remains open.
