In 2026, only 14 brokers hold both FCA (UK) and MAS (Singapore) regulation — making this one of the most exclusive regulatory combinations globally. Both the FCA and MAS are Tier-1 regulators known for their rigorous oversight, making this combination a strong quality signal.

MAS (Monetary Authority of Singapore) is Asia's most respected financial regulator, requiring brokers to maintain minimum capital of SGD 1 million and comply with strict anti-money laundering and client protection rules. Combined with FCA's consumer protection framework, this dual license is a reliable indicator of institutional-grade operations.

FCA+MAS brokers are typically global institutions serving professional and retail clients across Europe and Southeast Asia, and our data confirms they average among the highest scores in our entire 345-broker dataset.
