So HF obtained regulation (permit) from South Africa expect their services will enhance also.
From what I know Hotforex is governed by Cysec Cyprous. Probably HF has multiple labs based on the several areas of the clients?
I did not obtained from them any email regarding this, likely because this change do not influence EU clients?
If yes (and could be strange because I did not received any email about this), the change from Cysec regulation (a regulation that honestly I do not like in Any Way, but anyhow a MIFID compliant regulation) to South Africa regulation cannot be considered as a positive entity
Seems strange, cuz when I am broker, I still wish to ship for all customer about my inclusion of license, no matter if it's helpful or not with existed customer. Did you check your junk box?
I guess if this broker has enlarging its operations then it's a fantastic news for us that our broker is worried about their and their customers expansion. Let hope that each trader should find the exact same degree of esteemed services in future by them.
I dont believe its a switch, it may be an additional license/regulation for customers in the southafrican area, the more the marrier. .
I got their email though I'm not from EU. Anyhow the news are available on their website.Quote:

There has been signals that Europe will tighten regulation. This could lead to a lousy regulation like CySec in Europe, which untill now is a good spot for bucketshops to sort under, won`t be attractice anymore. Since they need to actually do what they are supposed to do, regulate and balance the relationship between the broker and the client.
If this is to become authentic, we will see alot of brokers running from CySec to offshore regulations. .
There is no regulator in the world that could eradie shady sophistied methods of forex brokers, because of the bad character of forex (no clearing centre, access limits etc.) Second, I doubt that they will expose themselves in such stupid manner. Better and simpler to accommodate under new rules and restrictions rather than get flagged as a scam broker by changing the regulation. .Quote:
