Each broker on this page is authorised by the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), which operates as a Tier 2 regulator in the United Arab Emirates. ADGM imposes regulatory requirements for capital adequacy and mandates client fund segregation for licensed forex and CFD brokers. While ADGM sets clear standards for market conduct and financial reporting, there is no published retail leverage cap and the existence of an investor compensation scheme is not confirmed. ADGM has gained recognition as a hub for international brokers seeking a regulated presence in the Middle East.
