Risk Warning:CFD trading involves significant risk of loss. This is not investment advice.
The Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) is the independent financial regulator of Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), the international financial centre located on Al Maryah Island in Abu Dhabi. The FSRA applies a principles-based regulatory framework aligned with international standards.
Visit fsra.adgm.com and access the public register. Search for the broker by name or reference number and verify that the authorisation is current and the permitted activities include OTC derivatives or retail forex.
FSRA licences are applicable within the ADGM free zone. The FSRA is a member of IOSCO and aligns with international standards set by IOSCO and the Financial Stability Board.
CFDs and leveraged products involve a high risk of loss. FSRA-regulated firms must adhere to conduct of business rules designed to protect retail clients.
Both are UAE-based regulators but operate in different free zones. The DFSA regulates within DIFC (Dubai) while the FSRA regulates within ADGM (Abu Dhabi). Both are considered high-quality, reputable regulators.
