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.
| Regulation | +/− | Reason | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Regulation | +2.0 | Tier 3 licence from SVG-FSA offshore; verification pending (REG_LIC_SVG-FSA) | evidence pending |
| Transparency | -30.0 | Offshore registration with remote operations; ownership is less transparent (TRANS_HQ_OFFSHORE) | evidence pending |
| Reputation | +0.0 | Insufficient user reviews (0) for assessment (REP_INSUFFICIENT) | evidence pending |
InstaForex requires stronger checks on reputation history and withdrawal experience. If bonuses or high leverage are offered, confirm whether principal can be withdrawn independently.

FXCN has no record of an active regulatory licence for InstaForex. Treat any platform soliciting deposits under this name with extreme caution and verify it with our scam-check tool first.
Based on public regulatory data and our open-source algorithm, FXCN currently scores InstaForex at 44.6/100 (Orange · High risk). Scores are fully independent of commercial deals and are not investment advice; fund safety ultimately depends on the licensed entity that onboards your account.
InstaForex was founded in 2007 and is headquartered in St. Vincent & Grenadines.
Clone firms reuse a genuine broker's name and licence number but operate different domains, payment accounts and support channels. Trust only the domain on the regulator's record; "agent onboarding" or "insider channels" are scam signals. Cross-check with FXCN's scam-check tool. Scam Check
The FXCN score combines 5 weighted dimensions: Regulation 30%, Risk control 20%, Transparency 20%, Reputation 20%, Disclosure 10%. As of 2026-08-16, 2/5 dimensions have enough public data to assess; not yet assessed: Risk control, 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.
Scores are computed automatically by a 100% open-source algorithm from public regulatory data — anyone can reproduce the exact score locally. Advertising never affects any score; see our methodology and revenue disclosure pages. 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.
