From my perspective as a seasoned trader, approaching withdrawals at any broker—especially one like ABX, which operates without credible regulatory oversight—is something I treat with great caution. While ABX presents itself as a global exchange for physical precious metals and touts an efficient platform, it’s important to remember that it is presently unregulated, and WikiFX points out a suspicious regulatory license and a high-risk profile. This means that documented company policies, including those around withdrawals, may not always be transparent or reliably enforced. Based on general industry practice, when making your first withdrawal from any broker, you’ll almost always need to provide identification documents. This typically includes a government-issued photo ID (such as a passport or driver’s license) and proof of address (like a recent utility bill or bank statement) to verify your identity and comply with anti-money laundering standards, even for unregulated entities like ABX. There might also be a need to complete and submit a withdrawal form found on their MetalDesk platform or client portal. Given the glaring red flags around ABX’s regulatory status, I cannot emphasize enough the importance of clarifying all documentation requirements with their official customer support before depositing or attempting any withdrawal. In my experience, unregulated brokers could change their documentation requests unexpectedly, so it’s best to confirm all steps in writing and retain thorough records of your correspondence and submitted documents. This approach helps manage your risk and sets clear expectations when dealing with a broker that lacks external accountability.
