XS.com's story page states the XS Group was 'Established in Australia in 2010' and its safety page repeats 'Since 2010, the XS Group has been providing traders, institutional investors, and brokers worldwide with access to deep institutional liquidity' (xs.com)

XS Ltd's Client Services Agreement (the Seychelles entity operating www.xs.com) states client money is promptly placed in accounts 'which are segregated from the Company's own accounts' (clause 17.3) and that 'The Client will not be required to cover losses exceeding his invested capital as the Company applies a negative balance protection policy', subject to a 'Negative Balance Protection Abuse' carve-out in paragraph 31 (xs.com)
