Zurich Prime Information

Zurich Prime, launched in 2014, describes itself as a “no dealing desk” (NDD) Forex and CFD broker, headquartered in Romania, and domiciled in the Marshall Islands. They provide a trading platform that offers traders a very wide range of assets for trading across Forex currency pairs, commodities, indices, and individual stocks wrapped as CFDs across both major and minor financial markets.

Howeverm, it is not regulated and several watchdogs – UKs FCA (in 2015) and the Ontario Securities Commission (in 2016) have warned that it is operating in their respective jurisdiction without the proper license. Such warnings sometimes mean just that, as most countries require that the financial services providers are licensed and regulated, but more often than not, those warnings mean that said company is a scam.
