One Financial Markets
We opened the file on One Financial Markets the way we open every file: register first, marketing never. Trading since 2007, run out of London, UK, and carrying 1 licence entry on the public record, 1 of them tier-1.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FCA | 466201 | UK | T1 | Axi Financial Services (UK) Limited (formerly C B Financial Services Ltd, trading as One Financial Markets) | fca.org.uk |
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
- One Financial Markets' own website states the brand has merged with its parent company Axi, having been acquired by the Axi Group in 2019.
- The FCA published a warning on 3 July 2024 about 'One Financial Market', a clone of an FCA authorised firm, naming Axi Financial Services (UK) Limited, firm reference number 466201, as the genuine authorised firm.
- The One Financial Markets brand was established in London in 2007.
- Client-facing services now operate under the Axi brand rather than under the One Financial Markets name.
Not verified
The following could not be traced to a primary source at the time of filing. We publish the gap rather than a number that would look tidier:
- minDeposit, spreadEurusd and account types — brand no longer publishes its own account specs
- segregatedFunds
- platform list for the legacy brand

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.
