The Lion Market Review

About The Lion Market

The Lion Market is not regulated by any recognized financial authority and provides no license number or regulator certification. The Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (CNMV) issued an official public warning dated 24 April 2023, stating that thelionmarket.live (also referred to as “EXAMPLE 4”) is not authorized to provide investment services, including advice on foreign exchange instruments, nor related auxiliary services under Spanish law. The firm is therefore considered unauthorized ().

The broker operates without segregation of client funds, lacks investor protection or compensation schemes, and presents conflicting or anonymous information about its jurisdiction—sometimes claiming Belgium, sometimes Italy, with no verifiable corporate entity. It has a reported minimum deposit of US$ 250 and offers leverage up to 1:200. Trading platforms, spreads, commissions, account types, available asset classes, base currencies, and swap-free/Islamic options are not confirmed by official sources ().

• Website currently inaccessible or nonfunctional, increasing operational and access risk ().
