Professional broker overview

FindMyFX editorial summary

Currencies Direct is operated in the UK by Currencies Direct Limited, an active English private company incorporated in 1995. The UK entity is authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority as an Electronic Money Institution under reference 900669, while affiliated entities serve the EU, South Africa, and Canada under local registrations. The reviewed sources describe currency conversion and cross-border payment services rather than leveraged retail forex trading, and standardized spread, leverage, and minimum-deposit data were not found.

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

Editorial note: This draft treats Currencies Direct as a foreign-exchange and international-payments provider, not as a leveraged CFD or margin-forex broker. Product availability and legal entity depend on client jurisdiction.
