MERLION GLOBAL is a forex & CFD broker based in Cyprus, established in 2020. On Trust Broker Hub it holds a Trust Score of 3.9 out of 10, which we rate as Poor — above the industry average of 3.3/10. High-risk profile — proceed only with caution and small amounts.
MERLION GLOBAL's licence comes from an offshore jurisdiction (FSC). Offshore regulation is far lighter than tier-1 oversight from bodies like the FCA (UK) or ASIC (Australia): there is usually no compensation scheme, and recovering funds can be difficult if the broker runs into trouble. Treat it with extra caution and verify the licence on the regulator's own register.
MERLION GLOBAL provides access to Forex, indices, precious metals, crude oil and cryptocurrency. Published conditions include leverage up to 1:400. No complaints are currently on record. Overall, MERLION GLOBAL carries a high-risk profile. Only consider it with money you can afford to lose, and verify everything independently first.
