Offshore Broker Reviews

Equiti (Seychelles)

Equiti.com is TrustedBrokers' "Best Overall Broker" in 2023. Trade CFDs on 400+ instruments on leverage up to 1:500. Get superior execution through its network of 35+ liquidity providers. Equiti accepts all trading styles on the MetaTrader 5 platform, without restrictions.

Equiti started in the UK in 2008 under another name, as a broker to institutional investors. In 2017, the company pivoted towards retail traders like you, and rebranded itself as Equiti. From its early days it retained an extensive network of 35+ liquidity providers. This provides its clients with superior pricing and execution.

Equiti is regulated in the UK, the United Arab Emirates and 4 other jurisdictions. However, you'll need to open an account with its Seychelles' entity to access flexible leverage up to 1:500. Customer support is available 24/6, in a wide range of languages, from its Dubai headquarters.

JustMarkets (Seychelles)

JustMarkets, registered in the Seychelles, is one of our top 5 offshore brokers. However, please note that it cannot provide services to residents of Australia, Canada, the EU (and EEA), Japan, the UK or the USA. If you live in any of these countries, you'll need to consider a different offshore broker.

With JustForex, you can leverage up to 3,000 times across all asset classes: Forex, metals, indices, shares, energies and even cryptocurrencies. JustMarkets.com accepts all trading styles and Expert Advisors on the MetaTrader 4 and 5 platforms. Perhaps it's no surprise that it was voted "Best Broker in Asia 2022" in the UF Awards.

JustMarkets accepts deposits and withdrawals in a wide range of fiat and crypto-currencies. Crypto-currencies include Bitcoin, Ethereum as well as stablecoins like Tether (USDT), Circle (USDT) and Binance USD (BUSD). The minimum deposit is just $5 across most funding methods.

Before you sign-up, you should be aware that none of these offshore jurisdictions offers investor compensation schemes. Should any of these brokers go bankrupt, you could stand to lose all or part of the money you have invested. If this is a concern to you, why not open offshore trading accounts with multiple brokers, or choose one that is also regulated in the UK, the EU or Australia.
