JP Markets was one of the largest forex brokers in South Africa, with a reputation for offering high leverage trading and competitive spreads. However, in 2020, the company found itself at the center of a scandal that rocked the South African forex economy.
An investigation into JP Markets has uncovered how the South African-based online forex broker has allegedly been trading against its clients and tampering with trading circumstances in order to drive down high earners' profitability while increasing the firm's.
The Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) previously reported that it filed an urgent application with the High Court to liquidate JP Markets (Pty) Limited and that the bank accounts of JP Markets had been frozen.
JP Markets, which was unlicensed and had a poor reputation among introducing brokers in South Africa, has been forced into administration by the authorities, and had its bank accounts frozen.
