The brokers listed here hold licences from CySEC, Cyprus's Tier 2 financial regulator, which oversees forex and CFD firms serving retail clients across the European Union. CySEC imposes a 30:1 leverage cap on major currency pairs for retail traders and mandates the segregation of client funds from broker capital. Authorised brokers must comply with MiFID II standards, including negative balance protection and transparent order execution. CySEC licensing enables brokers to passport their services throughout the European Economic Area.
