Purpose

The Irish foreign exchange market, developed in modern times, holds significant international influence. As a key component of the European financial system, it features active forex trading and strict regulation. To help investors and practitioners gain a more comprehensive understanding of forex brokers in the region, the field inspection team conducted an on-site visit to Ireland.

Process

This time, the on-site inspection team planned to visit the forex broker OFX in Ireland. According to public information, its office address is Fitzwilliam Court, 2 Leeson Close, Dublin 2 D02 YW24 Ireland.

A professional and experienced on-site inspection team, with a sense of mission to strictly screen for investors, went to Ireland according to a careful plan. They conducted an on-site verification of the broker OFX, which is claimed to be located at Fitzwilliam Court, 2 Leeson Close, Dublin 2 D02 YW24 Ireland.

The team successfully arrived at the target building, which is located in a specific area of Dublin, Ireland. The surrounding environment was relatively quiet, with a general commercial atmosphere. No signage or relevant information about the company was found outside the building.

The team entered the building lobby and explained their purpose to the security guard. After a brief conversation, they obtained permission to enter.

However, no company directory sign was found inside the building, nor was any LOGO related to OFX seen. Since the specific floor and location could not be determined, the team was unable to reach the target floor. Because there was no directional information about the company, they could not enter the company's interior, let alone take photos of the front desk and its LOGO. The office was not a shared office either.

Looking through the lobby area, due to inability to enter the company's interior, the internal environment and other conditions could not be observed. After arriving, it was confirmed that the address was correct, but no information about this broker was found. When asked, the security guard said that this company did not exist, leading to the conclusion that it was fraudulent.

Therefore, after the on-site inspection, it was confirmed that the broker OFX does not exist at the above address.

Conclusion

The inspection team went to Ireland as planned to conduct an on-site visit to forex dealer OFX. At its publicly displayed business address, they could not see the dealer's company name or other information, indicating that the dealer does not have a real place of business. Investors are advised to make an informed decision after comprehensive consideration.
