In the Bahamas, all forex brokers are regulated by the Securities Commission of the Bahamas (SCB), a respected regulator with long experience in overseeing both forex brokers and all other types of financial services companies. As most other regulatory agencies, the Securities Commission of the Bahamas publishes updated lists of all regulated forex brokers on its website, making it easy for traders to verify the regulatory status of a broker.
Even regulated forex brokers in offshore countries like the Bahamas offer very high trading leverage for their clients. In the Bahamas, leverage for retail clients is typically capped at around 1:500, which is far more than what is available at regulated forex brokers in the US and Europe for example.
