Reason for this visit

According to the Reuters, the United Kingdom has expanded its leading position in the field of global FX trading in the years since it voted to leave the European Union. In addition, the British retail foreign exchange market has one of the world's three most stringent regulatory bodies, that is the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). Many FX dealers take obtaining FCA regulation for pride, and also hope to enter the country to develop market business. To help investors or practitioners have a more comprehensive understanding of the dealers in that country, the survey team is going to UK for site visits.

On-site visit

This time the survey team visited the dealer Fake XTB in London, UK, with the specific address at 1 Canada SquareLevel 9Office 9.12Canary WharfLondonE14 5AAUNITED KINGDOM.

According to the above address, the survey team came to the destination of this survey, which was not far from Bank Street. There was a shopping mall downstairs. The building security was particularly strict and prohibited to take photos. The first floor of building looked grand with multiple elevators and exits inside. And each exit had a signage next to it. Unfortunately, the surveyors were unable to find the logo or other information of the dealer Fake XTB. Further, it was learned from the staff that the dealer was a clone one. 

Conclusion

The survey team went to London, UK, to visit the the dealer Fake XTB and found no office at its business address. It was supposed that the dealer might just use that address to register its company, or there was no offline exhibition place. Please be prudent when trading with this broker.
