XTBCO Review

About XTBCO

XTBCO is not regulated by any recognised financial authority and has no record of authorisation with agencies such as the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), Australia’s ASIC, Cyprus’s CySEC, or the US’s CFTC/NFA (). On 30 November 2023, Italy’s regulator CONSOB officially issued a warning that XTBCO was providing financial services or products in the UK without the required authorisation. The warning applies to the domains xtbco.com, client.xtbco.com and webtrader.xtbco.com ().

Investigations have revealed that XTBCO appears to have copied regulatory details—such as the FCA registration number 522157 and Companies House registration number 07227848—from a legitimate company, XTB Limited, though the addresses and corporate identities do not match. This suggests deceptive practices aimed at creating a false impression of legitimacy (). Authorities have effectively treated XTBCO as unauthorized to operate, and its sites have been deemed unsafe and potentially fraudulent.
