Purpose

The UK foreign exchange market is a historically established and highly developed international forex market. Since the formation of the modern financial system, it has been one of the core hubs of global forex trading, characterized by large trading volumes, a wide variety of trading instruments, and numerous market participants. To help investors or practitioners gain a more comprehensive understanding of forex brokers in this region, the verification team conducted an on-site visit to the UK.

Process

The onsite inspection team went to the UK as planned to conduct a field visit to forex broker Hedges Trade, and according to public information, its office address is th Floor, 107 Cheapside, London, EC2V 6DN, United Kingdom.

A professional and experienced site inspection team, with a sense of mission to strictly vet for investors, followed a meticulous plan and went to the target area in the UK to conduct an on-site verification of the broker Hedges Trade claiming to be located at the aforementioned address.

The site inspectors arrived at the target building smoothly. The location is in a bustling area of London, with a vibrant surrounding environment and a strong commercial atmosphere. However, no sign or relevant information of the company was found outside the building.

The site inspectors attempted to enter the building but were unable to obtain entry permission, so they could not enter the company lobby. Looking into the building, they also did not find the company's nameplate or logo.

Due to being unable to enter the building, the site inspectors could not reach the specific floor and confirm the exact location, nor could they enter the company interior or photograph its front desk. The office is not a shared office. Through the building's entrance, they could not observe the internal office environment and could not confirm whether the company exists.

The site inspectors found no information about the broker. Upon inquiring with the on-site management, they were informed that it is currently under renovation and not yet open, casting doubt on its authenticity. Therefore, after the inspection, it was confirmed that broker Hedges Trade does not exist at the aforementioned address.

Conclusion

The on-site inspection team went to the UK as planned to visit forex broker Hedges Trade in person. At its publicly displayed business address, the company name or other information of the broker could not be found, indicating that the broker does not have a real place of business. Investors should make their choices after comprehensive consideration.
