IM MARKETS Review

About IM MARKETS

IM Markets is incorporated in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, with its registered office at Suite 305, Griffith Corporate Center, Kingstown. Its business registration number is 3050LLC2023 under the country’s Financial Services Authority (SVG FSA). It claims membership with the U.S. National Futures Association (NFA) under ID 0556226, though NFA records indicate “Not an NFA Member. Non‑Member not subject to NFA oversight.” The broker offers trading in over 42 forex currency pairs, commodities (including gold, silver, WTI), indices, and cryptocurrencies, with leverage up to 1:1000 and spreads starting from 0.1 pip. Proprietary “Match Trader” platform is available for desktop (Windows/MacOS) and mobile (iOS/Android). It restricts services to residents of multiple jurisdictions including the United States, Singapore, Japan, and others. Risk warnings reference CFD products and emphasize that prior performance does not guarantee future results.

SVGFSA registration does not extend to forex brokerage licensing, as the regulator does not authorize forex trading operations. The NFA membership claim is unsubstantiated based on NFA’s registry. Therefore, IM Markets lacks oversight from credible financial authorities recognized for forex broker regulation.
