These firms are providing financial services or products in the UK without the FCA's authorisation. That means you will not be protected by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) and you are unlikely to get your money back if things go wrong.

It's a must to check a broker's regulatory status before you start to deal with it.
