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

Editorial note: The licence records were reviewed from the broker's official disclosures rather than direct regulator-register entries. The 1:1000 leverage is presented on the account pages and should be verified for the client's legal entity and classification before publication.
