Is JP Markets legitimate？Would you recommend to trade with this broker？

https://www.jpmarkets.co.za

JP Markets is owned and operated by JP Markets SA (Pty) Ltd, a South Africa-based company once licensed and regulated by the Financial Services Conduct Authority (FSCA) under FSP No. 46855. Nevertheless, the regulatory status of this broker is currently abnormal as FSCA has provisionally suspended its license in accordance with section 11(1)(b). For more details about this broker, you can check our full JP Markets review.

In terms of the validity of JP Markets, we argue that it is not proper to define it as a fraud, since this broker had run business in South Africa under regulation before the license was suspended and has been seeking for a chance to re-gain its license. Most importantly, FSCA said it would again look at JP Markets' license application, which means the broker would be quantified to deliver financial investment services once being approved. 

Overall, it is of certain risk to trade with JP Markets, and we would recommend to choose properly regulated brokers.
