Purpose

The UK foreign exchange market is one of the world's most significant forex markets, shaped through a long history of financial development. It is characterized by its long-standing history, vast trading volume, and diverse market participants. As an international financial hub, it attracts numerous globally renowned financial institutions and forex brokers to conduct business here. To help investors or professionals gain a more comprehensive understanding of forex brokers in this region, an on-site inspection team visited the UK for field research.

Process

The on-site inspection team visited the foreign exchange broker eToro in the UK as planned. According to public information, its office address is 24th floor, One Canada Square, Canary Wharf, London E14 5AB.

A professional and experienced on-site inspection team, driven by a sense of mission to rigorously safeguard investors' interests, meticulously planned and traveled to the UK to conduct an on-site verification of the trader eToro claiming to be located at the 24th floor, One Canada Square, Canary Wharf, London E14 5AB.

The inspector successfully arrived at One Canada Square, located in London's financial district, surrounded by major financial firms with a strong commercial atmosphere. The corresponding office building is a super-luxury one in the area, but no company logo or related information for eToro was found on the exterior of the building.

The surveyor entered the building lobby and explained their purpose to the security personnel. After communication, they obtained permission to enter the lobby. However, no signage information for eToro was found inside the building.

Due to the lack of an appointment, the inspection personnel were unable to access the target floor (24th floor) and thus could not confirm the specific location of the eToro office area. Additionally, they were unable to enter the company premises, preventing them from photographing the reception area and the logo at the front desk. Furthermore, this office is not a shared workspace.

Through the lobby area, the on-site inspector was unable to observe the internal office environment of the company, making it impossible to confirm whether it aligns with the company's claimed positioning.

Therefore, after on-site verification, it is doubtful whether the broker eToro exists at the above address.

Conclusion

The inspection team visited the UK as planned to conduct an on-site investigation of the forex broker eToro. At the publicly displayed business address, no information such as the company name of the broker was found, indicating doubts about the authenticity of the broker's actual business premises. Investors are advised to make their choices after comprehensive consideration.
