LION is a forex & CFD broker based in Cayman Islands, established in 2015. On Trust Broker Hub it holds a Trust Score of 5.1 out of 10, which we rate as Fair — below the 5.3/10 average for brokers that hold a verified licence. Mixed profile — check regulation and conditions before depositing.
Crucially, LION is regulated by CIMA, SFC 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.
LION provides access to Forex, securities, futures. Its detailed trading conditions — minimum deposit, spreads and maximum leverage — are not publicly disclosed, which lowers transparency. No complaints are currently on record. Overall, LION has a mixed profile: check its regulation and conditions carefully before depositing.

Frequently asked
Is LION a safe broker?
LION scores 5.1 / 10 on our Trust Score, below the 5.3 average for brokers that hold a verified licence. It holds tier-1 regulation, which offers strong investor protection. It has no complaints on record with us. Trade only with funds you can afford to lose.
How is the LION trust score calculated?
The score weighs five factors: regulation tier, transparency of disclosures, operating footprint, user sentiment, and complaint history. Each is scored out of 10 and combined into the overall figure shown at the top. Read our methodology.
What does "offshore regulated" mean?
It means the broker's licence comes from a jurisdiction with lighter requirements than tier-1 regulators like the FCA or ASIC. There's usually no compensation scheme, so recovering funds can be difficult if the broker fails.
Can I withdraw funds easily from LION?
LION doesn't publish detailed withdrawal terms, so we can't verify processing times or fees. Test with a small amount first and document every transaction.
