NFS is a forex & CFD broker based in Australia, established in 2016. On Trust Broker Hub it holds a Trust Score of 4.7 out of 10, which we rate as Fair — above the industry average of 3.3/10. Mixed profile — check regulation and conditions before depositing.
NFS's licence comes from an offshore jurisdiction (BY and CYSEC). 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.
NFS provides access to Equities, unit trusts, investment trusts, capital investment bonds. Its detailed trading conditions — minimum deposit, spreads and maximum leverage — are not publicly disclosed, which lowers transparency. No complaints are currently on record. Overall, NFS has a mixed profile: check its regulation and conditions carefully before depositing.

Frequently asked
Is NFS a safe broker?
NFS scores 4.7 / 10 on our Trust Score, above the 3.3 industry average. It is only offshore-regulated, which means weaker protection. It has no complaints on record. Trade only with funds you can afford to lose.
How is the NFS trust score calculated?
The score weighs five factors: regulation tier, transparency of disclosures, operating footprint, user sentiment, and complaint history. Each is scored out of 10 and combined into the overall figure shown at the top. Read our methodology.
What does "offshore regulated" mean?
It means the broker's licence comes from a jurisdiction with lighter requirements than tier-1 regulators like the FCA or ASIC. There's usually no compensation scheme, so recovering funds can be difficult if the broker fails.
Can I withdraw funds easily from NFS?
NFS doesn't publish detailed withdrawal terms, so we can't verify processing times or fees. Test with a small amount first and document every transaction.
