The Hellenic Capital Market Commission is the Greek securities regulator operating under EU MiFID II. HCMC-licensed investment firms benefit from EU passport rights and investor protection under the Hellenic Investor Protection Fund. Most international brokers serve Greek retail clients through CySEC or other EU passporting licences rather than holding a direct HCMC authorisation.

HCMC is classified as a Tier 2 regulator. Regulated jurisdiction with established oversight, though with fewer investor protections than Tier 1.
We currently list 2 stock brokers regulated by HCMC. The full list is shown above, sorted by overall trader rating.
HCMC is based in Greece and covers the European Union jurisdiction. As a Tier 2 regulator, it provides meaningful oversight, though investors should also verify whether a broker holds an additional Tier 1 licence for added protection.
Visit the official HCMC website and use their public register or licence verification tool. Enter the broker's registered name or licence number to confirm its status. This is the most reliable way to check a broker's regulatory standing.
Compensation availability depends on the specific rules of HCMC in Greece. Tier 1 regulators typically operate investor compensation schemes covering a portion of client funds. Check the regulator's official guidance for current limits and eligibility criteria.
