Fusion Markets holds 3 regulatory licences from ASIC, VFSC, FSA — including at least one tier-1 authority, which provides the highest level of investor protection available. The broker has been operating since 2017, giving it 9 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.
