This issue's survey team traveled to the United Kingdom as planned to conduct an on-site visit to forex broker Expert Capital Invstment. According to public information, its office address is 71 - 75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, United Kingdom, WC2H 9JQ.

A professional and experienced on-site inspection team, with a sense of mission to strictly safeguard investors, traveled to the United Kingdom according to a meticulous plan, to conduct an on-site verification of the broker Expert Capital Invstment claiming to be located at 71 - 75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, United Kingdom, WC2H 9JQ.

The inspectors successfully arrived at the target building. The location is in the Covent Garden area, surrounded by a bustling environment with a strong commercial atmosphere. However, no company signboards or related information about the broker were found on the outside of the building.

The inspectors entered the building lobby but found neither the broker's directory sign nor any related logos inside the building. Without clear guidance or signage, they could not reach a specific floor or confirm its exact location, and naturally could not enter the company's premises. Additionally, they were unable to photograph the front desk or its logo. This office space is not a shared office.

Through the lobby and other areas, because they could not enter the interior, they were unable to observe the office environment inside the company. After arrival, they confirmed that the address is correct, but found no information about the broker. When they asked the security guard, they were told that this company does not exist, and it was judged to be fraudulent. Therefore, after the on-site inspection, it was confirmed that the broker Expert Capital Invstment does not exist at the above address.

Conclusion

The on-site inspectors went to the UK as planned to visit forex broker Expert Capital Invstment. At its publicly displayed business address, they could not see the company name or other information of the broker, indicating that the broker does not have a real business premises. Investors should make their choice after comprehensive consideration.
