What the two desk scores say
Both are out of 10 and both are computed, not felt.
| Cost score | Priced off the spread basis below, not off a headline rate card. | not verified |
|---|---|---|
| Safety score | Weighted on licence tier and on how many of the entries we could re-read at source. | not verified |
| Cost per 10 lots | Ten round-turn EUR/USD lots priced at the spread basis, commission excluded. | $not verified |
Spread basis. . Nothing on this page is a live quote; a spread printed on a Tuesday afternoon is not the spread you get thirty seconds after a non-farm payroll release.
Licence entries, one row per entity
Every row links to the document we read it from.
| Regulator | Licence no. | Jurisdiction | Tier | Licensed entity | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| None — Saint Lucia company registration only | Saint Lucia | T3 | NordFX LTD (Saint Lucia reg. 2023-00470) | nordfx.com | |
| FSA Seychelles | SD065 | Seychelles | T3 | Maximus Global LTD | nordfx.com |
| FSC Mauritius | GB24204016 | Mauritius | T3 | Nord Premium LTD | nordfx.com |
Which entity actually holds your money is decided at signup, by the country on your application — not by the strongest licence in this table. Read the client agreement you are handed, then match the entity name against the row above.
What we were able to confirm
Confirmed at source
- NordFX's own site states the website is owned and operated by NordFX LTD, part of Nord Group, registered in Saint Lucia under registration number 2023-00470; a Saint Lucia IBC registration is a company registration and not financial-services supervision.
- The group's licensed entities named on the site are Maximus Global LTD, a Securities Dealer under FSA Seychelles licence SD065, and Nord Premium LTD, an Investment Dealer under FSC Mauritius licence GB24204016 (checked 7 August 2026).
- NordFX holds no tier-1 or EU regulatory authorisation according to its own published disclosures.
- Trade-press reporting states the group moved its operating registration from Vanuatu to Saint Lucia; the Vanuatu status was not confirmed against the VFSC register for this record.

Other records open on the desk
CFDs are complex instruments with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. A desk file is a record of what the public register said on the day we read it, not a recommendation to open an account.
