Is CAPEX.com regulated by the FSRA (ADGM)?

What the FSRA (ADGM) licence means

Based on our licence database, CAPEX.com holds a licence from the Financial Services Regulatory Authority, Abu Dhabi Global Market (FSRA (ADGM)), the financial regulator for United Arab Emirates. We classify the FSRA (ADGM) as tier 2 — strong regulation. Credible regulators with real rulebooks, but fewer safeguards than tier 1 (e.g. no compensation scheme or looser leverage rules).

For CAPEX.com clients whose account is held by its FSRA (ADGM)-regulated entity, the key protections are: compensation — No compensation scheme; retail leverage — Set under FSRA conduct rules; check the firm's disclosures; negative balance protection — not confirmed in our records (check the client agreement); client money — Client money rules apply. Disputes can be taken to ADGM Courts.
