SigmaForex LTD Regulations:

SigmaForex LTD working now to be regulated with FSA (United Kingdom Financial Service Authority) but now SigmaForex LTD is complying with FSA and many financial authorities like NFA, CFTC, FSC and others.

Why SigmaForex LTD not working in the regulation of NFA?

Most of Traders ask this question and it's a common question for any broker. Here's the answer; NFA (National Future Association) regulate the Financial Companies that based in United State and have Future Trading. SigmaForex LTD not inside United State and doesn't has Future Trading. But NFA rules are compatible with the rules that SigmaForex is following and you can check with your self.

Complying: Means that this company follows the rules 100% and meet their regulatory obligations efficiently.

Dear Trader, you must be involved and know the difference between FSA and NFA. Many Forex Brokers inside united State not regulated by NFA because they don't work with Future Trading but they are complying with them & follow the same rules as the Forex broker that regulated with NFA.

"Are You Regulated by NFA?"
"Are You Regulated by FSA?"
"Are You Regulated by CFTC?"
"Are You Regulated by SEC?"
"Are You Regulated by SIPC?"
"Are You Regulated by FINRA?"
"Are You Regulated by Mr.X?" :)

No, Don't Ask this question because there are many fictions regulations. Don't Be The Fish!
The Right Action to take is to compare between the rules and restrictions of the regulatory associations and the rules that the broker follow.

Complying With FSA means that this broker working in the regulation process and follow all the rules that the regulatory body has.

Regulated By FSA means that this broker already regulated by FSA & may Follow the rules.

Why?
NFA, FSA, CFTC, SIPC, SEC, .....etc all of these associations are private sectors in the origin. The Main Aim is to Collect as much brokers as they can to increase from their popularity beside the governmental associations
Do You Know that FSA, NFA or others charge Millions Of Dollars to authorize the regulation of brokers. All these money are distributed as following;
1- Part For The Tax Authority
2- Part For The Private Sector
3- Part For Governmental Sector
Some Brokers Play with these rules after paying all of these parts and it's time for scamming.
