Safety and regulation

The firm is authorised by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission, listed in Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC), under licence 171/12. Investor protection is stated as EU ICS up to EUR 20,000. Licence and protection both sit with the same Cyprus entity, ABF Trade EU Limited.

Who runs it

The operating entity is ABF Trade EU Limited, based in Cyprus. Support runs on email and phone, so the desk answers by email or by phone. The Cyprus licence 171/12 is held in the same jurisdiction as the headquarters, which keeps the regulator and the company in one place.

Frequently asked questions

How much do I need to deposit to open the account?+

The minimum deposit is $500 on the corporate account, well above the site median of €4.64. The brand sits near the back of the field here, ranking at 178 of 213 compared on minimum deposit. Funding an entity rather than a personal pot is what that entry level is built for.

What does it cost to buy a share?+

Stock trades cost $0 on the commission-free model, ranking at 1 of 161 among the brands compared on this measure. Deposits carry no charge, and the model is commission-free rather than tiered. The dealing cost is close to nothing; the entry deposit is the number to plan around.

Who regulates the firm, and what covers my money?+

The Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission is the named regulator in Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC), and the firm holds licence 171/12. Investor protection is stated as EU ICS up to EUR 20,000. That ceiling is the figure to measure a balance against, since the licence and the protection belong to the same Cyprus operation.

Which markets and platforms do I get?+

The account covers stocks, etfs and forex, and trading runs on MetaTrader 5. A demo account and a mobile app come with it, so you can practise before funding. The market list is short, so anyone after crypto or futures should look elsewhere.

What account types are on offer?+

The account types on offer are corporate and nothing else. That suits a company or an entity trading its own capital, and it leaves no personal investment account, tax wrapper or joint account here. Readers after those wrappers should compare the other brands on this page first.

How do I move money in and out?+

Deposits are free, so the only funding threshold is the minimum deposit of $500 on the corporate account. Questions about payments and withdrawals go to support, which runs on email and phone. Budget the entry amount before opening, since the account starts from that floor rather than a smaller one.

How much do retail accounts lose money?+

Retail accounts that lose money come to 66.7% here, against a site median of 70.15%. That figure describes trading outcomes across leveraged products, not the cost of dealing. Read it against a commission-free ticket: the fee is small, the risk carried by the products is not.
