The UK regulator identifies EXOTICINVEST TRADING AND INVESTMENT FIRM and the website www.exoticinvest.ltd, stating that the firm is not authorised and may be targeting people in the UK.

Anyone approached through the named website should stop before paying, avoid sharing login credentials and verify the exact business independently through the FCA Firm Checker.

This FTMO Global Markets review starts with a naming problem. The RBI Alert List updated 22 October 2024 names FTMO and links to ftmo.com/en at item 13.

Its January 2025 privacy policy describes FTMO Global Markets Ltd as a Mauritius investment dealer. These records do not prove RBI authorisation for the broker domain, and they do not justify treating every FTMO-branded service as the same product or legal entity.
