Purpose

The Singapore foreign exchange market is an emerging market that developed in the 1970s alongside the rise of the Asian Dollar Market. It is the world's fourth-largest foreign exchange trading center, attracting numerous international financial institutions and investors with its advantageous geographical location, well-developed financial infrastructure, and  the open policy. To help investors or practitioners gain a more comprehensive understanding of forex brokers in this region, the on-site inspection team conducted field visits in Singapore.

Process

The on-site inspection team visited the forex broker SygnumFX in Singapore as planned. According to public information, its office address is 1, Pasir Ris, Central Street 3, Singapore, Northeast, 518457.

A professional and experienced on-site inspection team, driven by a sense of mission to rigorously vet for investors, proceeded according to a well-planned schedule to the target area in Singapore. They conducted a physical inspection of the broker SygnumFX, which claims to be located at 1, Pasir Ris, Central Street 3, Singapore, Northeast, 518457.

The inspectors successfully arrived at the target commercial complex. The location is situated above a subway station in a non-central area of Singapore, with a generally average commercial atmosphere in the surrounding area. No signage or related information of the company was found on the exterior of the building.

The inspectors entered the building lobby and, after stating their purpose to the security guard, obtained permission to enter. However, as there was no specific floor or precise location in the public information, the inspectors were unable to confirm the location of the company. Upon arriving at the building, they found that there was no directory listing about the company inside the building, nor did they see the company's LOGO.

Since the specific location could not be determined, the inspectors could not reach a specific floor and confirm the exact location, so they could not enter the company's interior. Furthermore, this area was not a shared office space, so it was also impossible to photograph SygnumFX's reception area and LOGO. From the lobby, as the specific internal location of the company was unknown, it was impossible to observe the company's internal environment and other conditions.

Therefore, after the on-site inspection, it was confirmed that broker SygnumFX does not exist at the aforementioned address.

Conclusion

The on-site inspectors visited the forex broker SygnumFX in Singapore as planned. At the public business address, no information, such as the broker's company name, was visible, indicating that the broker does not have a genuine physical business location. Investors are advised to make their choices after comprehensive consideration.
