In this article, we will look into ACE FX and its validity to determine whether it is a reputable broker to invest in or one of the forex market's scams.
What is ACE FX and its regulation?
The homepage of the website does not reveal who is behind this supposed broker or where it is headquartered. There is no mention of the company's name or location whatsoever. The “Contact” section includes the firm name ACE FX LIMITED as well as a UK address. A broker must be licensed by the Financial Conduct Authority to operate in this area (FCA). However, there is no such firm in the regulator's database.
Checking the “Group” part reveals an entirely different story: ACE FX is administered by First Prudential Markets Ltd, a corporation with licenses in Cyprus, Australia, and St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
This cannot be accurate since First Prudential Markets owns FPMarkets, one of the world's most well-known brokers. This broker is unrelated to the ACE FXs website. This is shown by the following list of permitted domains in the FPMarkets registration information:
A third version of the Client Agreement, which is only accessible via the registration form, states that ACE FX is headquartered in the Republic of Vanuatu. This is an offshore zone with lax broker rules. However, this statement is also false: ACE FX is not registered with the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission.
When selecting a broker through which to invest in the financial markets, you should ensure not only that all of the information necessary by law is accessible, but also that it is accurate. Always ensure that the firm is listed on the appropriate regulator's records and that the domain utilized is one of those legally allowed for the specific broker.
Depending on where you live, it is best to select a company that is regulated by an institution such as the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) in the United States, the Australian Securities and Exchanges Commission (ASIC), the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), or an EU regulator such as the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC).
Clients of these brokers benefit from safeguards such as negative balance protection and money segregation from the broker's funds. Brokers must also engage in guarantee programs in the EU and the UK, which protect a portion of the trader's investment if the broker goes bankrupt. These assurances may be worth up to 20 000 EUR in the EU and 85 000 GBP in the United Kingdom. However, the possibility of such bankruptcy is limited since regulators impose large net capital requirements on corporations - EUR 730 000 in the UK and Cyprus, AUD 1000 000 in Australia, and at least 20 million USD in the United States.
Have you ever encountered such illegal activities from your broker? Here are the procedures for reporting the incident to the WikiFX Right Protection Center.
Step 1: If you haven't already, download the app from the App Store or Google Play. If it is already installed, go to step 2.
Step 2: Launch the WikiFX application.
Step 3: On the navigation menu, tap the expsoure.
Step 4: After taping the exposure on the nav menu, press the exposure button at the bottom of the screen.
Step 5: After pressing the expose button, a little screen with the case's categories will show. Choose the type of case you want to report.
Step 6: After choosing the appropriate category, look for and touch on the participating broker.
Step 7: After choosing the involved broker, the screen will display a report form. Add a title, a detailed explanation of the occurrence, and, most importantly, submit any proof.
Step 8: Once you've finished filling out the form, click the Release button to submit the report. Someone from customer care will call you shortly to ask follow-up questions about the event.
You may also contact WikiFX Customer Support. However, we always urge traders to publish the occurrence on the expose page so that others are aware of it and for future reference as the matter progresses toward resolution.
