Purpose

The UK foreign exchange market is a long-established and highly developed international forex market, occupying an important position in global forex trading. It has a mature financial system, a sound regulatory mechanism, and an active trading atmosphere. In order to help investors or practitioners gain a more comprehensive understanding of the forex brokers in the region, the team went to the UK for an on-site visit.

Process

This time, the team went to the UK as planned to visit the forex broker CATALYST INVESTMENT on site. According to public information, its office address is the Apex, 2 Sheriffs Orchard, Coventry, CV1 3PP.

A professional and experienced team, with a sense of mission to strictly safeguard investors, followed a well-planned itinerary and went to the UK. They conducted an on-site verification of the broker CATALYST INVESTMENT claiming to be located at The Apex, 2 Sheriffs Orchard, Coventry, CV1 3PP.

The team successfully arrived at the target building, located in Coventry, UK. The surrounding environment was relatively quiet, and the business atmosphere was average. No signage or relevant information about the company was found outside the building. The team entered the lobby of the building and stated their purpose to the security guard. After a brief discussion, they obtained permission to enter.

However, no company directory listing or logo was found inside the building. Since the specific floor and location could not be confirmed, the team could not go to a specific floor to verify the broker's office area. Without any informational guidance, the team could not enter the company's premises, nor could they take photos of the reception desk and its logo. Moreover, this office was not a shared office.

Through the glass door, as they could not enter, the team was unable to observe the internal environment, decoration style, or employee activities. Overall, upon arrival, they confirmed the address, but found no information about the broker. Inquiries with the security guard revealed that this company did not exist, leading to the conclusion that it was fictitious.

Therefore, after the on-site verification, it was confirmed that the broker CATALYST INVESTMENT does not exist at the above address.

Conclusion

The team visited the UK as planned to conduct on-site investigation of the forex broker CATALYST INVESTMENT. At its publicly displayed business address, the broker's company name and other information were not visible, indicating that the broker does not have a real business premises. Investors are advised to make their decisions after comprehensive consideration.
