What the record says

The UK Financial Conduct Authority publishes a warning entry for 'Kwakol Markets / kwakolmarkets.com', stating the firm may be providing financial services or products in the UK without FCA authorisation.

Review site GlobeGain reports it found no evidence of a valid licence from recognised authorities and notes earlier ASIC-licence claims appear to have been cancelled.

Review site ForexBrokersOnline states its checks of official registers found the broker is not currently a member of the US registers (MSB/NFA) its own marketing claims.

WikiFX lists an ASIC AR (appointed representative) arrangement only, not a direct ASIC licence.
