Tier is the desk's shorthand for the supervising regime, not a quality score: T1 a top-tier statutory regulator, T2 a mid-tier one, T3 an offshore registration.

What the record says

Alpari's own site states the brand was founded in 1998 and that it serves more than 1 million clients.

Alpari states it is licensed by the Mwali International Services Authority (MISA) as an International Brokerage and Clearing Company under number T2023236; MISA is a Comoros (Mohéli) offshore authority.

Alpari's legal footer names the operating company as Parlance Trading Ltd, registered number HY00423015; the MISA registrar's public verification page lists the same licence number T2023236 against the name Alpari (Comoros) Ltd.

Alpari (UK) Limited, a separate former UK group company, entered the Special Administration Regime on 19 January 2015 following the Swiss National Bank's removal of the EUR/CHF cap (source: FCA).

The current Alpari offering is not covered by any tier-1 regulator's supervision.
