Ciri-Ciri Broker Teregulasi FSA

Rekan-rekan badan regulasi FSA sudah tidak asing lagi bagi mereka yang melakukan trading forex. Tetapi disisi lain ternyata masih banyak yang terlewat, bagaimana untuk mengidentifikasi bahwa broker tersebut masuk kategori teregulasi oleh FSA. Nah, di bawah ini kami kutipkan tulisan tentang FSA dari web kawan kita di brokerforex.com.
Berikut ini uraian beliau tentang broker yang teregulasi oleh FSA;

• Di bagian Current Status di situs anggota FSA nya tertulis Authorised (bukan EEA Authorised, karena EEA Authorised itu artinya mereka diperbolehkan untuk melaksanakan usaha di negara Eropa dan Inggris , tetapi mereka BUKAN pialang atau broker yang dijamin oleh FSA tersebut*). *KECUALI jika mereka juga teregulasi oleh regulator lain seperti CFTC maka tidak apa-apa (disebut Multi Regulasi). Hal ini ditujukan agar perusahaan broker tersebut bisa memberikan fitur Hedging, No FIFO, dan High Leverage kepada nasabahnya.
  
• Di bagian Notices di situs anggota FSA tersebut tertulis : Able to hold and control client money (bila tidak ada tulisan ini, maka mereka bukan teregulasi FSA sepenuhnya, tetapi hanya ijin untuk diperbolehkan memasarkan di wilayah negara Inggris (UK), tetapi kalau terjadi apa-apa maka FSA tidak turut campur). Kecuali jika ada perjanjian/MOU antara FSA dengan Regulator tersebut. Contohnya: Regulator MFSA dengan FSA itu terdapat kerjasama MOU bahwa FSA juga bertanggung jawab.
• Contoh broker / pialang Forex yang benar-benar terdaftar di FSA : (Gain Capital) http://www.fsa.gov.uk/register/firmBasicDetails.do?sid=62171
• Contoh broker / pialang Forex yang TIDAK TERDAFTAR di FSA sebagai pialang (dan di regulator CFTC pun juga tidak), mereka hanya diperbolehkan untuk memasarkan produknya saja di negara tersebut tapi TANPA jaminan dari FSA: (contoh: perusahaan broker ACFX – Atlas Capital) http://www.fsa.gov.uk/register/firmBasicDetails.do?sid=199887 , broker ACFX ini tidak terdaftar di FSA sebagai Pialang ! (dan juga tidak terdaftar di CFTC pula), apalagi bila mereka juga bisa menerima Liberty Reserve (LR)  dan transfer dengan pihak ke 3 / Money Changer, maka itu lebih berbahaya lagi dan jelas ilegal.
• Bila tidak terdaftar di FSA sebenarnya juga tidak apa-apa, ASALKAN mereka terdaftar juga di CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission), ini point paling pentingnya. Karena bila terdaftar juga di CFTC maka itu sudah yang terbaik.

Itu adalah ciri-ciri untuk melihat bila broker anda benar-benar terdaftar di FSA sebagai perusahaan Pialang atau bukan.

ENGLISH VERSION :

Financial Services Author
Fellow FSA regulatory agencies already familiar to those who do forex trading. But on the other hand there are still many missing, how to identify the broker is regulated by the FSA in the category. Well, below we quote from the article on the FSA website at brokerforex.com comrades.
Here is his description of the FSA regulated broker;

    On the Current Status of his site members FSA Authorised writing (not EEA Authorised, EEA Authorised because it means they are allowed to carry out business in European countries and the UK, but they are NOT a broker or broker is guaranteed by FSA *). * UNLESS they are also regulated by other regulators such as the CFTC does nothing (called Multi Regulation). It is intended that these brokerage firms may provide hedging feature, No FIFO, and High Leverage to its customers.
    In the Notices on the site are written FSA members: Able to hold and control client money (in the absence of this writing, they are not fully FSA regulated, but only permission to be allowed to market on the territory of the United Kingdom (UK), but if something happened what the FSA does not interfere). Unless there is an agreement / MOU between the FSA by the Regulator. For example: MFSA Regulator that there is co-operation with the FSA MOU that the FSA is also responsible.
    Example broker / broker Forex actually enrolled in FSA: (Gain Capital) http://www.fsa.gov.uk/register/firmBasicDetails.do?sid=62171
    Example broker / broker Forex is NOT LISTED in FSA as a broker (and CFTC regulators were not), they are only allowed to market their products only in the country but WITHOUT guarantee from FSA: (example: ACFX brokerage firm - Atlas Capital) http: / / www.fsa.gov.uk/register/firmBasicDetails.do?sid=199887, ACFX broker is not listed in the FSA as a Broker! (And also not registered with the CFTC as well), especially if they can accept Liberty Reserve (LR) and transfer to the third party / Money Changer, then it is more dangerous and clearly illegal.
    When not actually listed on the FSA's okay, as long as they were registered also in the CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission), is the most important point. Because if registered also in the CFTC then it is the best.
It is characteristic to see if your broker is properly registered in the FSA as a broker or not.
