On 21 January, 2025, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the UK's primary financial regulator, expanded its warning list to include 10 additional unregulated forex brokers. The FCA warning lists, updated on a daily basis, remain an important tool intended not only to protect consumers but also to alert the financial services industry.
