Sway Markets

On the desk for one reason: licence no longer active on file. 2 register lines are on this file, spread across 2 legal entities in 2 jurisdictions, none of them with a top-tier regulator.

Thin file. Most of the commercial detail is unconfirmed and is left blank rather than estimated.

Register lines on file for Sway Markets. A blank number is a number the desk could not read on a source; it is not a zero.

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

The CFTC added Sway Markets (swaymarkets.com, origin Saint Vincent and the Grenadines) to its Registration Deficient (RED) List on 29 May 2025 (cftc.gov)

ASIC published a proposed deregistration notice for Sway Markets Pty Ltd (ACN 663 928 158).

Trade press reported in 2025 that Sway Markets suspended its brokerage operations while its prop-trading arm Sway Funded continued.

Saint Vincent and the Grenadines FSA does not regulate forex or CFD trading, so an SVG registration is not a trading licence.

The desk left these blank rather than fill them from secondary sources. They stay on the file as open questions and will be filled the day a primary source carries them.
