  • Securities
  • Futures
  • Options and so on

Depending on the jurisdiction, the registration of a Forex broker and obtaining an appropriate Forex license allows the company to provide various types of investment services:

  • Work with orders related to financial instruments;
  • Execution of orders on behalf of the client;
  • Securities portfolio management;
  • Providing recommendations to clients on investing money;
  • Administration of various financial instruments;

  • Consulting services;
  • Currency exchange provided there is a connection with the investment process.

An investment company whose activities are related to the Forex market must comply with certain requirements. They vary depending on the country where you wish to obtain the Forex license.

To summarize the requirements for Forex companies, licensing of investment activities implies the following:
