Can Pepperstone Be Trusted?

Pepperstone is licensed and regulated by several leading financial authorities, underscoring its commitment to maintaining high standards of trust and transparency. These include the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA #684312) in the United Kingdom, known for its stringent market oversight.

Pepperstone also complies with regulations set by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) in Australia, the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) in the UAE, the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) in Cyprus, the Capital Markets Authority (CMA) in Kenya, the Securities Commission of The Bahamas (SCB), and Germany's Bundesanstalt für Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht (BaFin).

This extensive regulatory framework ensures that both individual and institutional clients can fully trust in Pepperstone’s operational integrity.

In 2020 Pepperstone unfortunately, suffered a client data breach explaining that a “data security incident” impacted some users discussed here which has since been addressed.

Any suspicious emails, calls or texts from anyone trying to gain access to any brokerage account, should be ignored and reported.
