Abshire Smith Review

About Abshire Smith

Abshire-Smith Global Ltd operates the domain abshire-smith.com. The broker’s Client Agreement states it is “authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority” under Firm Reference Number 590890, and identifies the UK company as Abshire‑Smith Global Ltd (company number 07894030). Companies House lists this company as “Dissolved” with a dissolution date of 20 May 2025. Official site Companies House

The broker’s Products page advertises “standard leverage of 1:100 (maximum 1:400)” for FX. UK FCA rules restrict CFD/rolling spot FX leverage for retail clients to between 30:1 and 2:1; this is a conflict, and regulator rules take precedence in case of inconsistency. Official site FCA

Platforms listed by the broker include VertexFX 10, MetaTrader 4, and Straticator, with access to FX and CFDs (indices, commodities, metals, energies) and DMA/exchange‑traded equities for institutional clients. The site highlights swap‑free (Shariah‑compliant) accounts on MT4 and VertexFX, EA compatibility on MT4 (on request), plus API/FIX connectivity; its Risk Warning states that “losses can be unlimited.” Official site Official site
