Binomo is an UNLICENSED broker registered in the St. Vincent and the Grenadines, a famous offshore zone. The FSA of the St. Vincent and the Grenadines has announced that it does not issue any licenses for forex trading or brokerage nor does it regulate, monitor, supervise or license international companies engaging in such activities. In reality, it is of certain risk to trade with the offshore based companies as they don't provide any funds protection as well as withdrawals guarantee, nor do they comply with full requirements and strict rules, including numerous security and transparency obligations.
Binomo also claims to be regulated by the Financial Commission, and its subsidiary TITAWIN to be regulated by the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission (VFSC). Despite the provided regulation on its website, Binomo is not under valid supervision, since the Financial Commission simply acts as an independent external dispute resolution (EDR) organization that does not regulate forex, and there is no regulatory details about TITAWIN in the registers of VFSC.
What's worse, the Spanish regulator CNMV, Cyprus regulator CySEC and the Brazil's regulator CVM have successively added Binomo to the alert list to warn the public that this firm is not authorised to provide the investment services in their countries. You can check full alert or warning from CNMV, CySEC and CVM on Binomo respectively.
As per the red flags above, we recommend you to stay away from Binomo and choose properly regulated brokers.
