Tier classification follows the same scale as the retail register: tier-2 means real supervision and client-money segregation, without an investor compensation scheme. Rows without a tier are recorded without classification rather than guessed.

Where the published model fits

  • Brokers seeking multi-asset liquidity
  • Hedge funds needing low-latency trading
  • Institutional clients requiring diverse asset classes

Watch for

  • Verification of self-measured latency claims
  • Impact of tier 2 and tier 3 licences

Finalto is a prime-of-prime liquidity provider regulated by multiple authorities, including the FCA and ASIC. It serves brokers, hedge funds, and institutional clients with direct bank connectivity via FIX API. The firm operates in multiple jurisdictions with varying licence tiers, which may impact service scope.
