Cardiff Markets’ website provides no regulatory disclosures, only claims that it was registered in United Kingdom.

We searched the official register of the FCA using all available details, but found no record of Cardiff Markets or any associated company.

This absence of basic corporate and regulatory information strongly suggests that Cardiff Markets operates without authorization. Therefore, Cardiff Markets appears to be a scam.

ANSWER Dear Investor, Cardiff Markets offers CFD and Forex trading services but fails to provide any valid regulatory information on its website, citing only a UK address. We specifically searched the official register of Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) for its claimed entity, Cardiff Global Markets Limited, and found no records of authorization. Claiming a UK presence without FCA licensing is a major red flag of being authorised and fraudulent. Therefore, we strongly advise against trading with Cardiff Markets, as it appears to be an unregulated entity posing significant risks to your funds.
