Is FP Markets legal in Pakistan?
Forex trading with offshore brokers is not clearly regulated in Pakistan and carries legal ambiguity around moving funds abroad. Verify the current rules before trading.
FP Markets does not hold a SECP / State Bank of Pakistan licence specifically for Pakistan in our records, so Pakistani clients are typically served through FP Markets's international/offshore entity. That means you rely on that entity's regulation rather than local Pakistan protection — check which entity you're signing up with.
FP Markets's regulation
Australian (2005) — regulated by ASIC (Australia), CySEC (Cyprus), FSA (St. Vincent for the global entity).
For Pakistani traders
Before you trade from Pakistan
Laws change and are enforced differently — this is general information, not legal advice. Always confirm the current rules with SECP / State Bank of Pakistan and verify which FP Markets entity serves Pakistan. Trading Forex/CFDs is high-risk and can lose all your capital.
