Regulators
There is no single global body governing the forex market to police the massive 24/7 market.
These standards include being registered and licensed with the regulatory body, undergoing regular audits, communicating certain changes of service to their clients, and more.
Licensed forex brokers are subject to recurrent audits, reviews and evaluations to ensure that they meet the industry standards.
This helps ensure that currency trading is ethical and fair for all involved.
Every country has its regulatory authority that lays down the framework of rules that are to be complied with when operating in the forex trading market.
Below is a list of financial regulatory bodies for each country in alphabetical order.
