Boursorama Regulation — What You Need to Know
Regulation is one of the most important factors when choosing a broker. A well-regulated broker must segregate client funds from its own operating capital, maintain minimum capital reserves, and submit to regular audits. This protects your money in the event of broker insolvency.
Boursorama holds 1 regulatory licence from AMF — including at least one tier-1 authority, which provides the highest level of investor protection available. The broker has been operating since 1995, giving it 31 years of track record.
When evaluating broker safety, look beyond the licence itself: check for investor compensation schemes, negative balance protection, and whether the broker publishes audited financial statements. Our rating methodology weights regulation at 25% of the overall broker score — the single largest factor.

Yes, Boursorama is regulated by AMF. This includes at least one tier-1 regulator, providing the highest level of investor protection.
2Is my money safe with Boursorama?
Boursorama holds tier-1 regulatory licences which require strict fund segregation — your money is kept separate from the broker's operating funds. Some licences include investor compensation schemes that protect your funds up to a certain limit if the broker becomes insolvent.
3What is the difference between tier-1 and offshore regulation?
Tier-1 regulators (FCA, ASIC, SEC, BaFin) enforce the strictest rules: mandatory fund segregation, high capital requirements, regular audits, and investor compensation schemes. Offshore regulators (FSA Seychelles, VFSC, IFSC) have lighter requirements, which means higher leverage is available but with less investor protection.
