Purpose

The UK foreign exchange market is one of the globally significant forex markets formed through a long historical development process. It features characteristics such as large trading volume, a rich variety of trading instruments, and diverse market participants, holding a pivotal position in international foreign exchange trading. To help investors or practitioners gain a more comprehensive understanding of forex brokers in this region, the on-site inspection team traveled to the UK for field visits.

Process

In this issue, the on-site inspection team went to the United Kingdom as planned to conduct an on-site visit to the forex broker Flow Markets. According to public information, its office address is "12 Finsbury Square London EC2A 1AS UNITED KINGDOM".

A professional and experienced on-site verification team, driven by a sense of mission to rigorously vet for investors, traveled to the United Kingdom according to a meticulous plan to conduct a physical verification of the broker Flow Markets claiming to be located at "12 Finsbury Square London EC2A 1AS UNITED KINGDOM".

The verification personnel successfully arrived at the target building. The building is located in a specific commercial area in London, UK, with a strong surrounding business atmosphere and numerous financial institutions and commercial establishments lining the streets. However, no company signage or any relevant information for Flow Markets was found on the exterior of the building.

After entering the building lobby, the verification personnel explained their purpose to the security guard. However, the guard explicitly stated that the company Flow Markets does not exist within this building and refused the verification personnel's request to enter.

During further communication with the guard, the verification personnel learned that there is another company called Flow Trade in the building. The verification personnel inquired if there was any connection between the two companies. The guard very definitively confirmed that the two companies are completely unrelated and assured that Flow Markets is definitely not in this building. Due to the inability to enter the building, the verification personnel naturally could not reach the target floor to confirm the specific location, nor were they able to photograph the reception area. The office space was also not a shared office.

Therefore, after the on-site verification, it is confirmed that the broker Flow Markets does not exist at the aforementioned address.

Conclusion

The on-site inspection team visited the forex broker Flow Markets in the UK as planned. At its publicly displayed business address, they were unable to see information such as the broker's company name, indicating that the broker does not have a genuine business premises. Investors are advised to make their choices after comprehensive consideration.
