BrokersView has Reviewed that 12Trader is an Unregulated Forex Broker 12Trader, operated by Safe Side Trading LTD, claims that it won award in 2014. However, we checked its domain and found the domain has been created in 2015. How could it win award in 2014? It is a red flag. 12Trader presents an address in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. So we searched Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Financial Services Authority (SVG FSA) but found no matching results. In other words, 12Trader is not registered here. Besides, SVG FSA is not a forex regulator. It does not regulate forex brokers or issue forex licenses. So having registration does not mean being authorized to provide financial services. 12Trader alco claims to be located in the UK. As per United Kingdom law, all firms and individuals offering, promoting, or selling financial services or products in the UK shall be authorized by the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (UK FCA). However, we did not find any matching results in UK FCA. That means 12Trader is not regulated in the UK. The truth is that 12Trader is not regulated by any regulators. Letting this broker hold or control investors' money is unsafe, and the money can not be protected by any laws. Therefore, it is a scam.

I've found some bad reviews about 12Trader. Are they true? I don't know. Could you please tell me whether I should trade with it or not? 12Trader is not a licensed or regulated broker even though it states offers that look good to be true. 12Trader claims to be operated by Safe Side Trading LTD, a company has two company addresses in the Saint Vincent and the Grenadines and the United Kingdom. First, we did searching in the Grenadines Financial Services Authority (SVG FSA) but found no matching results. Besides, SVG FSA does not regulate forex. Second, as per United Kingdom law, all firms and individuals offering, promoting, or selling financial services or products in the UK shall be authorized by the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). However, we did not find any matching results to 12Trader in FCA's registry.The truth is, 12Trader is not overseen by any regulators. That means your personal data or your funds in this broker are unsafe and cannot be protected by any law. We would recommend traders stay away from unregulated brokers like 12Trader and trade with licensed brokers. View Source
