Is Deriv legal in Bangladesh?
Forex trading by residents via offshore brokers is heavily restricted under Bangladesh's foreign-exchange control rules, and moving funds abroad for trading is largely not permitted. Understand the legal risk before trading.
Deriv does not hold a Bangladesh Bank licence specifically for Bangladesh in our records, so Bangladeshi clients are typically served through Deriv's international/offshore entity. That means you rely on that entity's regulation rather than local Bangladesh protection — check which entity you're signing up with.
Deriv's regulation
The successor to Binary.com (group since 1999) — regulated by MFSA (Malta), LFSA (Labuan), VFSC (Vanuatu), BVI FSC. CFD, multipliers, & options products.
For Bangladeshi traders
Before you trade from Bangladesh
Laws change and are enforced differently — this is general information, not legal advice. Always confirm the current rules with Bangladesh Bank and verify which Deriv entity serves Bangladesh. Trading Forex/CFDs is high-risk and can lose all your capital.
