Purpose

The UK foreign exchange market is a long-established and highly developed international forex market. Since the 19th century, it has become one of the core hubs of global forex trading by virtue of its advantageous geographical location, well-established financial system, and extensive trading experience. To help investors and practitioners gain a more comprehensive understanding of forex brokers in the region, the survey team conducted an on-site visit to the UK.

Process

This issue's inspection team visited the forex broker CapitalAfflux in the UK as planned. According to public information, its office address is 33 Great Charles Street, Birmingham, B3 United Kingdom.

A professional and experienced on-site inspection team, with a sense of mission to strictly vet for investors, traveled to the UK according to a well-planned itinerary. They conducted a field verification of the broker CapitalAfflux, which claims to be located at 33 Great Charles Street, Birmingham, B3 United Kingdom.

The inspectors arrived at the target building, which is located in a specific area of Birmingham, UK. The surrounding environment is relatively bustling with a strong commercial atmosphere. However, no company signage or related information of CapitalAfflux was found outside the building.

The inspectors entered the building lobby and stated their purpose to the security guard. After friendly communication, they were not granted permission to enter.

Upon arriving at the destination, the inspectors found that there was no obvious signage for CapitalAfflux's office area, nor any corresponding security measures. Since there was no relevant information about the company in the building, the inspectors could not enter the so-called interior, could not take photos of the front desk or its logo, and the premises were not a shared office.

Unable to enter the interior, the inspectors could not observe the company's internal environment, decoration style, employee activities, etc. After arriving, they confirmed that the address was correct, but found no information about the broker. The security guard told them that the company did not exist. The overall situation did not match the broker's claimed location, and it was determined to be false.

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

Conclusion

As planned, the on-site inspectors visited the forex broker CapitalAfflux in the United Kingdom. At its publicly displayed business address, they could not see the company's name or other information, indicating that the broker does not have a real business premises. Investors are advised to make their choice after due consideration.
