Cons
- The FCA linked firm cannot legally hold or control client money

- Leverage up to 1:800 sits far above normal FCA retail limits
- Different reviewers list different regulators, which we could not confirm
- Standard account spreads from 1.7 pips are wide for major forex pairs
IEXS calls itself Integrated Exchange Securities and says it was set up in 2010. It markets itself from London, offering forex, shares, metals, energy, and crypto CFDs on MetaTrader 5, with the Standard account open from $200.
IEXS points to a UK company, Vision Integrated Exchange LTD, which the FCA register shows as genuinely authorised since 2021 under reference 923324. That firm is an Article 3 exempt firm though, and the FCA record says it cannot hold or control client money. The company that actually signs up traders is IEXS LLC, registered in St Vincent and the Grenadines, a place that registers firms without close supervision.
This gap matters. Standard leverage reaches 1:800, far above the 1:30 cap FCA rules set for retail forex clients, so trading happens outside FCA protection. Other reviewers list different regulators for IEXS, including Australia and Vanuatu, that we could not confirm. Treat IEXS as an offshore broker, not an FCA protected one.
