Philippines · Tier-2

SEC Philippines warns about forex schemes. It doesn't license the brokers.

Securities and Exchange Commission, Philippines · est. 1936
Tier 2Public register

The SEC registers securities and investment offerings in the Philippines and regularly issues advisories against unregistered investment schemes, including forex 'investment' offers. It does not license the offshore forex and CFD brokers Filipino traders fund with GCash, and the BSP doesn't either. A broker's Philippine marketing is not Philippine regulation.
