IGB Markets Review

About IGB Markets

IGB Markets is not regulated by any recognized financial authority. Searches of the Central Bank of the United Arab Emirates (CBUAE) and the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) registries did not reveal any authorization for IGB Markets to provide investment services ().

Publicly available documentation does not specify any regulatory licenses, license numbers, or supervising jurisdictions. The absence of disclosures such as terms & conditions, risk disclosures, or privacy policy further undermines transparency ().

IGB Markets claims, via third-party sources, to offer over 380 tradable instruments across asset classes including forex, indices, cryptocurrencies, commodities, shares, and CFDs. Account types mentioned include VIP, Premium, and Mini, with a minimum deposit reported at USD 5,000 and floating spreads from 0.8 pips; maximum leverage figures are withheld ().

Absence of a recognized license and regulatory oversight renders clients’ funds unprotected under any financial authority’s investor protection framework. BrokerTransparency warns that investors' funds cannot be considered safe ().
