Reasons for Field Survey

The Russian foreign exchange market is one of the most important financial markets in Eastern Europe. Leveraging its abundant energy resources and growing economy, the Russian forex trading business has gradually flourished, attracting numerous international and local traders. To help investors gain a deeper understanding of the actual operations of forex brokers in the region, a field research team conducted an on-site visit to Russia.

Field Survey Process

This issue's field research team traveled to Moscow as planned to conduct an on-site visit to the brokerage firm Analytical Center. Publicly available information indicates its office address is G. Moskva, Ul. Novatorov, 7A Kopr. 2, 24th Floor (7A Novaya Rakshasa Street, Moscow).

Based on this address, the professional field research team, committed to fulfilling their responsibility to investors, conducted an on-site inspection of Analytical Center.

The field research team traveled to the Novaya Rakshasa area of Moscow, a remote area far from the city center. Upon arrival at the building, the surrounding commercial atmosphere was relatively quiet. From the exterior, the field research team was able to capture a clear panoramic view of the building and found no Analytical Center signage.

The field research team successfully entered the building lobby, but upon examining the lobby signage, they could not find the Analytical Center company name, nor was the company logo visible inside or outside the building.

Upon arrival, the inspection team discovered the building was closed. After questioning security, they learned that the company did not exist there and were asked if they had misidentified the address. Consequently, the inspection team was unable to reach the specific floor or confirm the company's location, and naturally could not enter the company. Furthermore, they were unable to photograph the reception desk or the front desk logo, leaving them with no idea of the company's internal office environment. Upon confirmation, the location was not a shared office, further confirming that the Analytical Center did not actually operate there.

Thus, the inspection confirmed that the Analytical Center, a broker, did not have a physical location.

Field Survey Summary

The surveyors visited the Analytical Center as planned. They could not find the broker's company name and other information at its publicly displayed business place, indicating that the broker does not have a real business location. Investors are advised to consider this information comprehensively before making decisions.
