Tier classification follows the same scale as the retail register: tier-2 means real supervision and client-money segregation, without an investor compensation scheme — never misread it as tier-1 protection.

Perimeter and coverage
| Asset classes | Venues | Connectivity | Clients accepted | Explicitly refused |

| FX, Indices, Metals, Energies, Futures, Crypto | LD4 (London), NY4 (New York), TY3 (Tokyo) | Centroid Bridge, PrimeXM, oneZero, Ultency Matching Engine, MT5 Gateway | Brokers, Banks, Asset managers, Funds, Professional clients | Retail clients (professional clients only per own legal text) |
A firm that publishes its own negative space — who it refuses, where it is not licensed — is materially easier to assess than one that doesn't. The refusal list is treated here as disclosure, not as a defect.
