Verify Official Domains

Confirm the website URL matches the broker's published official domains. Avoid login pages reached through unsolicited links or social media messages.

Review Company Registration

Check whether the legal entity is disclosed with incorporation details and downloadable documents where available. Company registration is not the same as a financial services license.

Understand Regulatory Scope

Determine what licenses or registrations exist and what they actually authorize. A representative office license differs from a financial broker license.
