How We Assess a Trading Provider: The Evidence a Review Must Carry

A provider review on this site is a record of what can be verified, not an opinion dressed as a rating. Until the checklist below is complete for a named provider, the verification state stays "unreviewed" and no score, ranking or recommendation is published. That is deliberate: an unsupported verdict is worth less than an honest gap.

What has to be on the record

Every claim a review makes has to trace to a primary source a reader can open. For a trading provider that means the regulatory identifier confirmed on the authority's own register, the legal entity that actually holds client accounts, the jurisdiction that entity operates from, and the deposit, withdrawal and fee terms as published by the provider. A claim we cannot source is marked unverified rather than repeated.

Why no score yet

A rating implies a settled judgement. We only publish one once the evidence table is complete and each row is supported. Where the evidence is partial, the review says so plainly and withholds the number. A reader is better served by "we could not verify this" than by a confident figure resting on the provider's own marketing.

How to use a review here

Read the evidence table before the prose. If a provider's regulatory identifier, group structure or withdrawal terms are marked unverified, treat those as open questions to resolve on the regulator's register and in the provider's own documents before depositing.

Trading Insider publishes education and analysis, not financial advice, and does not assert a regulatory finding about any provider. Leveraged trading can cause the loss of your entire balance. Verify every provider claim independently before acting.
