SVG FSA

St. Vincent and the Grenadines Financial Services Authority - Minimal offshore regulation.

Definition

SVG FSA (St. Vincent and the Grenadines Financial Services Authority) is often cited by forex brokers, but notably does NOT actually regulate forex trading. SVG has explicitly stated it doesn't license or supervise forex brokers, making "SVG regulated" essentially meaningless.

How It Works

Does NOT regulate forex brokers
Company registration only - no supervision
No capital requirements or oversight
Essentially unregulated jurisdiction for forex

Trading Tips
