Solid, well-regulated profile suitable for most traders.
CMC Markets is a forex & CFD broker based in United Kingdom, established in 1989. On Trust Broker Hub it holds a Trust Score of 9.0 out of 10, which we rate as Good — above the 5.3/10 average for brokers that hold a verified licence. Solid, well-regulated profile suitable for most traders.
Crucially, CMC Markets is regulated by ASIC, FCA, FMA, CIRO and MAS, including at least one tier-1 regulator. Tier-1 regulation is the strongest sign of legitimacy: it normally requires segregated client funds, regular audits and access to a compensation scheme if the broker fails — meaningful protection for your money.
CMC Markets provides access to forex and CFDs. Published conditions include leverage up to 1:200. No complaints are currently on record. Overall, CMC Markets looks like a credible option — but always verify the licence yourself and start with a small amount.
This broker carries an editorial override: the formula computes 8.8/10, and we publish 9.0/10. Overrides are rare, always logged with a reason, and recorded in our audit trail.
CMC Markets currently scores 9.0/10. The trend line will build here as the Trust Score is re-evaluated over time.
Offshore (tier-3) regulators typically have lower capital requirements and no compensation scheme. Funds may not be protected if the broker fails.
