FXCM is a long-running FX/CFD brand that continued operating in some markets after major historical regulatory events. Users should pay close attention to current onboarding entity, regulatory status, past disputes, execution policy and withdrawals.
Identify the onboarding entity from these records before applying the score or any client protection to an account.
You contract with one of the licensed entities below, not with the brand. Protection differs enormously between jurisdictions, so check which entity actually onboards you.
FXCM should not be assessed by brand history alone or by old negative headlines alone. Verify the current contracting entity, license status, client agreement and complaint route.

The FXCN score combines 5 weighted dimensions: Regulation 30%, Risk control 20%, Transparency 20%, Reputation 20%, Disclosure 10%. As of 2026-08-30, 3/5 dimensions have enough public data to assess; not yet assessed: Reputation, Disclosure. Unassessed dimensions stay at the base score of 50 — they neither add points nor trigger the "any dimension too low" downgrade. We would rather flag a gap than fill it with a guess. Every individual point adjustment is listed in the evidence table above. Methodology
Brokers sharing a regulator appear first, followed by alternatives in the same headquarters jurisdiction and risk band. Every relationship comes from structured FXCN data; nothing is random.
