Abstract:A certain CySEC-regulated broker EMPORIUM CAPITAL resisted its investor from withdrawing his remaining funds from his account.

It can be very disappointing and distressing to be scammed by a regulated broker in any instance, as you may have trusted that the broker was trustworthy and operating within the law because of its regulatory status.
It can be mentally challenging to come to terms that you've been controlled or not allowed to get your funds from your account by someone who is supposed to be regulated and trustworthy. An example is Emporium Capital
A little bit of background of Emporium Capital
The Emporium Capital Group of Companies offers multi-asset Forex and Contract for Difference (CFD) trading. According to their official website, they established a safe trading network consisting of high-end technology and respected alliances from their offices across the globe with numerous regulated countries, allowing Emporium Capital to be a secure and trusted broker.

The said financial company is regulated under CySEC and has been in business since 2020.

From the statement above, how come such a regulated broker did kind of illicit acts to their investor?
However, upon checking the name of the said company under FCA's official website, no registration under the name of EMPORIUM CAPITAL.

As we all know, FCA is one of the major financial regulatory bodies that have the power to set rules and standards for financial firms, supervise their compliance with those rules, and take action against firms or individuals that violate them. The FCA also has the authority to conduct investigations, impose fines, and revoke licenses for firms that fail to meet their regulatory requirements. It was established in 2013, and it was created as a successor to Financial Services Authority (FSA). The FCA is independent and funded by levies on firms that it regulates.
The case story
“An investor invested amounting to $4500. The time that the investor wanted to get his remaining amount from his account amounting to $1400, he requested a withdrawal. Unfortunately, it took him 7 days for the representative to reply to his request. The sad part is, the representative named Halil a Turkish told him to make a transaction so he could send $1000 over his account. From this moment, he made a lot of calls since the day he requested a withdrawal but until now nothing happens.”

While holding a reputation rooted in longevity, ActivTrades has recently become the subject of alarming reports regarding the sudden removal of trader profits. Our analysis of data ranging from late 2024 through 2025 reveals a specific pattern: traders generate returns, attempt to withdraw, and subsequently find their profits—and occasionally principal deposits—deducted without clear recourse.

When choosing a broker, the most important question is always: "Are my funds safe?" The answer depends on the broker's regulatory framework. For a company like AMarkets, which has been operating since 2007, understanding its licensing isn't just about checking a box. It's about understanding what that regulation truly means for your protection as a trader. This article provides a clear, detailed breakdown of AMarkets' licenses, what their offshore status really means, the extra safety measures it uses, and the risks you need to consider. We will go beyond marketing claims to give you factual, balanced information about their official licenses and other trust signals, helping you make a smart decision.

Despite holding legitimate regulatory statuses in Indonesia, the broker MIFX (PT. Monex Investindo Futures) has become the subject of intense scrutiny following a surge in trader complaints. Over the past three months alone, WikiFX has logged 15 formal complaints, painting a picture of a trading environment plagued by technical irregularities, unexplained order executions, and a deposit system that allegedly traps funds in a bureaucratic loop. This investigation delves into the disparity between MIFX’s regulatory paperwork and the jarring reality reported by its active users.

The question "Is AMarkets safe?" is the most important thing any trader can ask before investing. Putting your capital in a trading company requires a lot of trust, and the answer isn't simply yes or no. It's complicated and depends on understanding how the company works, what protections they have, and their past performance. To give you a clear answer, we've done a complete safety review of AMarkets. Our research looks at three main areas, each examining a different part of the company's safety. We'll share what we found using facts you can check, so you can make your own smart decision about whether your capital will be safe.
