MARKETS.COM: institutional due diligence FAQ
Key supervisory, licensing, and counterparty verification questions generated from the dataset.
What is MARKETS.COM's regulatory licence status and supervisory authorisation?
In our imported dataset, MARKETS.COM (legal entity reference: MARKETS.COM) holds 3 recorded licence entries, of which 3 carry a "regulated" status and 3 are marked regulated or registered: ASIC (Australian Securities and Investments Commission) — licence 424008, status: regulated, Tier-1; CYSEC (Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission) — licence 092/08, status: regulated, Tier-2; FCA (Financial Conduct Authority (UK)) — licence 481853, status: regulated, Tier-1. Institutional due diligence requires verifying that the exact legal entity on your counterparty agreement matches the licensed entity name and registration number on the official ASIC, CYSEC, FCA public register.
Which of MARKETS.COM's jurisdictions and licences fall within this site's regulatory coverage?
MARKETS.COM is tracked under our stock brokers, investment platforms and wealth managers coverage scope based on its institutional service profile (Cryptocurrencies, Forex, Stocks, Commodities, Bonds) rather than a domestic focus licence. Its 3 recorded licences (ASIC, CYSEC, FCA) should be evaluated for cross-border passporting and local solicitation rules.
What is MARKETS.COM's institutional risk classification, enforcement exposure, and score profile?
MARKETS.COM carries a "risk level not supplied" classification in the source dataset (composite numeric scores are not supplied for this record). The record flags 0 regulatory warning or complaint counts. Because these figures reflect imported source fields rather than primary audit findings, compliance teams should review primary enforcement bulletins directly.
What operational due diligence steps apply to MARKETS.COM's platforms, entity structure, and complaints?
Before allocating capital or executing trades with MARKETS.COM (listed execution software: markets.com, Trading platform), institutional and retail allocators should: (1) confirm the domain (markets.com) against regulator-approved domains to guard against clone firms; (2) verify whether any of the 0 recorded warning/complaint entries or 0 user comments involve withdrawal restrictions or scope violations; and (3) confirm the dispute-resolution ombudsman tied to ASIC.
