Purpose

The UK foreign exchange market, formed through a long historical development, is one of the world's major forex markets, characterized by its large trading volume, diverse range of instruments, and numerous market participants. As an international financial center, it plays a key role in global forex trading. To help investors or practitioners gain a more comprehensive understanding of forex brokers in the region, the team traveled to the UK for an on-site visit.

Process

This team went to the UK as planned to visit the forex broker Empires Markets in person. According to public information, its office address is 65 Gresham St, London EC2V 7NQ, United Kingdom.

A professional and experienced team, with a mission to strictly vet for investors, went to the UK according to a meticulous plan. They conducted an on-site inspection of the broker Empires Markets claiming to be located at 65 Gresham St, London EC2V 7NQ, United Kingdom.

The team successfully arrived at the target building, located in central London, with a relatively bustling surrounding environment and a strong commercial atmosphere. However, the entire building was under renovation, and no signage or relevant information of broker Empires Markets was found outside the building.

The team entered the building lobby and stated their purpose to the security guard. After communication, they were not granted access.

However, no nameplate of broker Empires Markets was found outside the building, nor was its logo seen. Unable to determine the specific floor and location, the team could not reach the target floor. Moreover, without relevant information guidance, they could not enter the company's interior, and naturally could not take photos of the front desk and its logo. The office was not a shared office either.

The building was under renovation, so the internal office environment could not be observed because entry was not permitted. Upon arrival, the address was confirmed, but no information about the broker was found. It was comprehensively judged that the broker is fake at this address.

Therefore, after the inspection, it was confirmed that broker Empires Markets does not exist at the above address.

Conclusion

The team went to the UK as planned to conduct an on-site visit to the forex broker Empires Markets. At its publicly displayed business address, they were unable to see the broker's company name or other information, indicating that the broker does not have a real business premises. Investors are advised to make their decisions after comprehensive consideration.
