Regulatory profile

Fusion Markets is a forex & CFD broker founded in 2017 and headquartered in Australia.

In our database Fusion Markets is matched to 3 licences from ASIC, FSA (Seychelles) and VFSC. At the top of that list, the ASIC (Australia) is among the regulators we classify as tier 1 — regulators that combine high capital requirements with meaningful retail protections.

Like many international brands, Fusion Markets combines onshore and offshore entities. Clients in the UK, EU or other markets where it holds a strong licence are usually onboarded there, while clients elsewhere may be placed with its FSA (Seychelles)-licensed company or its VFSC-licensed company. The protections differ substantially, so check which company is named in your client agreement.

None of the regulators we have matched to Fusion Markets operates a statutory compensation scheme covering retail forex, so the safety of your deposit relies mainly on segregation of client funds and the broker's own financial strength. Negative balance protection is mandatory for retail clients under ASIC rules. Retail leverage caps apply at the ASIC-regulated entities (for example 30:1 on major FX pairs at ASIC).

Fusion Markets provides access to MT4, MT5, cTrader and TradingView. The advertised minimum deposit starts at zero (no minimum) — minimums often vary by account type and entity.
