FSC BVI-registered brokers often offer flexible conditions for international clients but provide fewer retail investor protections than Tier 1 or Tier 2 regulators. The BVI is a popular choice for broker group holding companies and offshore entities serving global retail clients.

Always choose exchanges with published cold storage ratios and Proof of Reserves attestations.
