What this means
Regulation carries the heaviest weight in the score, which is why it is scored first.
Ox Securities lists its regulation as Entity/jurisdiction dependent.
Client money is held separately from the firm's own money, at Top-tier global banks. That separation is what makes your balance recoverable if the company fails, rather than part of the pool its creditors divide up.
There is no negative balance protection. In a fast market a position can gap straight through your stop, and without this the resulting debt is legally yours - you can lose more than you deposited.
Covered by No statutory compensation scheme identified for global clients, which pays eligible clients up to its limit if the firm fails owing client money.
