Forex brokers in Singapore: the strict ones, ranked.

Singapore is the most regulated forex market in Southeast Asia, and the smallest. The MAS doesn't issue many licenses, and the ones it does come with leverage caps that most retail traders find punitive. Most Singaporeans trade with overseas brokers anyway. We list both.

FAQ

Questions traders in Singapore ask.

Is forex trading legal in Singapore?
Yes. Trading with MAS-licensed brokers is fully regulated. Trading with overseas brokers is permitted but unprotected by Singapore consumer law.
Why do most Singaporeans use overseas brokers?
MAS caps retail leverage at 1:20, which most active traders find too restrictive. Overseas brokers under FCA/ASIC offer 1:30–1:500 with comparable regulatory standing.
What protections do I lose?
Singapore's investor compensation scheme doesn't cover overseas accounts. If the broker fails, you're at the mercy of its home regulator's compensation fund (if any).
