PolandThe brokers listed here hold licences from the KNF, Poland's Tier 1 financial regulator and an official authority within the European Union. KNF-regulated brokers must comply with the EU regulatory framework, including a maximum retail leverage cap of 1:30 on major instruments. Clients benefit from mandatory fund segregation, ensuring broker-held funds are kept separate from client assets. KNF authorisation allows regulated firms to operate throughout the European Economic Area under EU passporting rights.
