Purpose

The UAE foreign exchange market is an emerging forex market that has developed in recent years. With its advantageous geographical location, open economic policies, and advanced financial infrastructure, it has attracted the attention of many international financial institutions and investors. In order to help investors or practitioners better understand the forex dealers in the region, the survey team went to the UAE for an on-site visit.

Process

This time, the inspection team planned to visit the forex broker MarginFX in the UAE for an on-site inspection. According to public information, its office address is Office 25A, Bhurj Al Salam, Trade Centre, Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai, P.O.Box - 73310.

The professional and experienced on-site inspection team, driven by a sense of mission to strictly vet brokers for investors, went to the UAE in accordance with a thorough plan. They conducted an on-site verification of broker MarginFx, which claims to be located at Office 25A, Bhurj Al Salam, Trade Centre, Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai, P.O.Box - 73310.

The inspectors arrived at Bhurj Al Salam without difficulty. The site is located on Sheikh Zayed Road in the center of Dubai. It is a luxury office building with a bustling environment and a rich commercial atmosphere. However, no company signage or related information about MarginFx was found outside the building.

The inspectors entered the lobby and stated their purpose to the security guard. Since they had no appointment, the security guard did not allow them to go upstairs. On the first floor, there was no complete directory board information, so it was impossible to confirm whether the company really exists. Neither was MarginFx's company nameplate or related logo found.

Because they did not reach the target floor, it is unclear whether MarginFx's office area has clear signage or security measures. They were also unable to take photos of the reception desk and its logo, and the office is not a shared office.

Since they were not allowed in, they could not observe the company's internal office environment. Overall, it was impossible to judge whether it matched its claimed positioning.

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

Conclusion

The surveyors went to the UAE as planned to inspect the forex broker MarginFx in person. At its publicly displayed business address, they could not see the company name or other information of the broker, indicating that the broker does not have a real business premise. Investors are advised to make their decisions after comprehensive consideration.
