Purpose

The UAE foreign exchange market is an emerging forex market that has developed in recent years. With its advantageous geographical location, open financial policies, and advanced financial infrastructure, it has gradually become one of the important forex trading centers in the Middle East. To help investors or practitioners gain a more comprehensive understanding of forex brokers in the region, the team went to the UAE for an on-site visit.

Process

This time, the team went to the UAE as planned to conduct an on-site visit to the forex broker First Investment. According to public information, its office address is Unit 101, Level 1, Currency House Tower 2, DIFC, PO Box 507240, Dubai, UAE.

A professional and experienced team, with a sense of mission to strictly vet for investors, followed a meticulous plan and traveled to the UAE. They conducted an on-site inspection of the broker First Investment, which claims to be located at Unit 101, Level 1, Currency House Tower 2, DIFC, PO Box 507240, Dubai, UAE.

The team arrived at Currency House Tower 2, located in downtown Dubai, an ultra-luxury landmark office building with a bustling surrounding environment and a strong business atmosphere. No company signage or relevant information was found outside the building.

The team entered the building lobby and explained their purpose to the security guard. After communication, they obtained entry permission. However, there was no company directory listing for the firm in the building.

Due to strict security, the team could not reach the target floor to confirm the specific location, and thus could not verify whether the office area of First Investment had clear signage or security measures. The team was unable to enter the interior, could not take photos of the front desk or its logo, and the office is not a shared office.

From the lobby, the team could not observe the internal environment of the company. Overall, the actual situation does not match its claimed location.

Therefore, after the site visit, it was confirmed that the broker First Investment does not exist at the above address.

Conclusion

The team visited the forex broker First Investment in the UAE as planned, but at its publicly displayed business address, the company's name and other information could not be found, indicating that the broker does not have a real place of business. Investors should make their choices after comprehensive consideration.
