Professional broker overview

FindMyFX editorial summary

Bawany Securities is a Pakistan-based securities and futures broker listed by PMEX for metal, energy, and financial products. The reviewed sources do not establish a conventional retail spot-forex or CFD account, although PMEX products can create cross-currency exposure. A 14 November 2022 SECP order imposed a PKR 260,000 penalty for AML/CFT control deficiencies; the published order states that the penalty had not been deposited and an appeal had been filed as of the document's upload.

Prepared from reviewed sources for informational purposes. This is not investment advice.

Editorial note: This entry treats Bawany as a futures and securities broker, not as a confirmed retail spot-forex dealer. The historical SECP order and its appeal status should be reviewed for any later resolution.
