FCA’s core responsibilities include protecting consumers, maintaining the integrity of the UK financial system, and promoting healthy competition within financial markets.

An FCA (Financial Conduct Authority) warning is a serious alert that a broker or financial service is operating without proper authorization in the UK. The FCA is one of the worlds most respected financial regulators, and its role is to protect investors from fraud, scams, and unethical practices.

If a broker receives an FCA warning, it means:

1. The broker is not licensed or regulated by the FCA.
