Purpose

The Hong Kong, China foreign exchange market is an international foreign exchange market that has developed since the 1970s. As one of the world's important financial centers, Hong Kong's foreign exchange trading is active, with a high degree of openness and liquidity. Its market trading hours bridge the European, American, and Asian markets, occupying an important position in the global foreign exchange market. To help investors or practitioners gain a more comprehensive understanding of forex brokers in this region, the on-site inspection team conducted field visits in Hong Kong, China.

Process

This time, the on-site inspection team went as planned to Hong Kong, China, to conduct a field visit to the forex broker ArtaGM. According to public information, its office address is Units 1 - 2, Level 9, K11 ATELIER King’s Road, 728 King’s Road, Quarry Bay, Hong Kong.

A professional and experienced on-site verification team, driven by a sense of mission to strictly vet for investors, proceeded according to a well-planned schedule to K11 ATELIER King’s Road at 728 King's Road, Quarry Bay, Hong Kong, China, to conduct an on-site verification of the broker ArtaGM which claims to be located in Units 1-2, 9th Floor at this address.

The verification personnel successfully arrived at K11 ATELIER King’s Road, located on King's Road in Quarry Bay, Hong Kong. The surrounding area is bustling with a strong commercial atmosphere. However, no company signage or related information for ArtaGM was found on the exterior of the building.

The verification personnel entered the building lobby and stated their purpose to the security guard. After communication, they obtained permission to enter the lobby.

Inside the lobby, the verification personnel searched carefully but did not find a directory plate for ArtaGM. Upon inquiring with the front desk staff, they were informed that there was no such company in the building, and they were not allowed to go upstairs to verify. Due to the inability to reach the target floor, the verification personnel could not locate the office area of ArtaGM, and there were no apparent signs or security measures. As they did not receive permission to go upstairs, they naturally could not enter the interior, take photos of the reception area or its LOGO, and the office area in question was not a shared office space.

From the lobby, the verification personnel could not observe the internal environment of the company, etc. Therefore, after the on-site verification, it was confirmed that the broker ArtaGM does not exist at the aforementioned address.

Conclusion

The on-site inspection team visited the forex broker ArtaGM at its publicly displayed business address in Hong Kong, China as planned, but was unable to see any information such as the broker's company name at the location, indicating that the broker does not have a genuine business premises. Investors are advised to make their choices after comprehensive consideration.
