We document brokers from public sources first. When a broker's licence claim diverges from what the public register shows, we publish a dated, sourced Editorial Notice on the broker's page — with the regulator URL inline so you can verify it. No five-star reviews bought with affiliate links; our methodology is public and challengeable.

See picks →Each broker review documents the broker's claimed regulators, verifies them against public registers, and notes any divergence. Where a regulator has issued a public advisory, the URL is cited inline so a reader can verify in seconds rather than trust our paraphrase. The full scoring methodology is public.

InvestorTrip is an independent broker review publication. We catalogue brokers across forex, CFDs, stocks and crypto, publish editorial notices when a broker's regulatory claim diverges from public-register evidence, and maintain a public methodology. We have no paid placements — partnership-marked brokers cannot move within our ranking and are clearly labelled.
Each broker in the catalogue is documented from public sources first — regulator registers (FCA, CySEC, ASIC, FSCA, BCC and others), official broker disclosures, and IOSCO I-SCAN warnings. Where a broker's public claim does not match the Tier-1 register, we publish a dated, sourced Editorial Notice on the broker's page citing the regulator URL directly.
We may earn affiliate commission from some partner-program broker links at no additional cost to you. Affiliate status does not move a broker within our scoring and cannot block, soften, or alter editorial notices. Partner-program broker rows are listed on /advertising-disclosure.
When a broker advertises regulation under a licence that the public register shows belongs to a different entity, or when a sovereign regulator has published a warning, we surface that fact at the top of the broker's page with the source URL inline. The notice carries no characterisation language — it states the regulator's own published position and leaves the comparison to the reader.
Coverage is concentrated on brokers that accept clients from the United Kingdom, the European Union, and other major retail markets. Country availability on a specific broker is documented on that broker's review page.
