Swiss Investment Fx is a broker that offers trading on Crypto, Currencies, Commodities and CFD’s assets. The company is owned and operated by Swiss Investment Corporation LTD., registered in the Marshall Islands, which means it is an offshore entity and there is a high risk for the customers of losing their investments when dealing with this firm.

The company doesn’t disclose any information about its regulation as well as the contact details. The website supports English, Italian, Spanish and German languages, which means the broker has been targeting residents of these countries. In addition, numerous negative reviews from the scammed clients only prove that Swiss Investment Fx cannot be trusted.

The first thing the potential investor should do when he is choosing a trading company is to determine if it is a legitimate broker or a scam broker. It is very easy to do. You just need to check if the broker is licensed by CySec in Cyprus, or it is under the regulation of the MIFId in the European Union (EU), or it is registered with the UK’s FCA or Australian ASIC.
