Is Golden Key Pro Scam or Legit Broker?

No, it is not safe to trade with Golden Key Pro. Golden Key Pro is owned by United Limited, which is an offshore company registered in the Marshall Islands.

• The Marshall Islands is notorious for its practically absent requirements and regulations. Due to the setup cost being low, it does not regulate forex trading. Therefore, it became an offshore zone for shady forex brokers such as PTBanc, Pinprotrade, and more.

What is Golden Key Pro?

Golden Key Pro offers trading with over 800 high-liquidity assets, including Stocks, Commodities, Indices, Currencies, and much more. The company doesn't disclose any information about its location or regulation, which we consider one of the reasons to avoid this broker.

• The lack of information about the broker’s regulations, trading conditions, and contact details should be the biggest red flag for those who plan to invest with the entity. Usually, such companies run investment scams.
• Another red flag is the warning from Spain's regulator CNMV (The National Securities Market Commission):

"UNITED LIMITED is not authorized to provide the investment, which includes investment advice, or to provide auxiliary services in relation to the financial instruments, including, for those purposes, foreign currency transactions."

Golden Key Pro Review Conclusion

We advise all investors and traders to avoid Golden Key Pro and other brokers from the Marshall Islands. It is not safe to sign in with offshore brokers, as they are not reliable in the terms of regulations and safety. Traders should trade with well-regulated brokers such as UK brokers or brokers in Australia and reliable brokers such as IG Markets and BlackBull Markets.

The company provides a contact phone number with a British code, which should make traders think the broker has something to do with the UK and maybe regulations there. However, GoTechFx is not authorized in the UK or in any other country.

• In fact, the broker has recently been blacklisted by Austrian Financial Market Authority:

  "Go T limited (GoTechFx) is not entitled to carry out banking transactions in Austria that require a licence. The provider is therefore neither permitted to trade on a commercial basis on its own account or on behalf of others."

Is Suisse Trade Center Scam or Legit Broker?

It is not safe to trade with Suisse Trade Center, because it is an unregulated broker. In addition, the company has been suspected to be a fraud. While we checked the company there is no authorization or registration of the address, therefore the company seems to be highly suspicious and might operate its services from an absolutely different location.

What is Suisse Trade Center?

Suisse Trade Center is a Forex broker owned and operated by Suisse Trade Center Ltd, with offices in Belize and Cyprus (Check our review on Cyprus-headquartered TriumphFX). The website supports only the German language, and most probably the firm is targeting Swiss customers, as the contact phone number is from Switzerland.

• Moreover, Suisse Trade Center was blacklisted by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA). All the facts say that the company is either registered offshore or doesn't have any kind of registration/regulation.

Suisse Trade Center Conclusion

W found too many safety and regulation issues in regard to Suisse Trade Center services and the manner they do operate the online trading itself. We recommend that investors and traders avoid offshore companies and invest with brokers regulated by reliable authorities such as UK’s FCA, and Australia’s ASIC, such as HotForex, and BlackBull Markets.

Suisse Trade Center Update

We found that the Suisse Trade Center website is inactive and unavailable to reach. This means the broker no longer operates. However, it is best to avoid and stay alert in case any proposals show up.
