What the JFSA licence means
Our records show that, Money Partners holds a licence from the Financial Services Agency of Japan (JFSA), the financial regulator for Japan. We classify the JFSA as tier 1 — top-tier regulation. Strict capital, client-money and conduct rules with active enforcement; usually leverage caps and often compensation schemes.
For Money Partners clients whose account is held by its JFSA-regulated entity, the key protections are: compensation — No compensation fund, but client funds must be held in a mandatory trust (kubun kanri shintaku); retail leverage — 25:1 on FX for individual traders; negative balance protection — not a regulatory requirement (may be offered contractually); client money — Mandatory segregated trust with a trust bank. Disputes can be taken to FINMAC (Financial Instruments Mediation Assistance Center).
