Canada’s IIROC Warns Investors Against UnicornFX

The Investment Industry Regulatory Organization of Canada (IIROC) announced that it is warning Canadian investors not to be fooled by UnicornFX.

UnicornFX, also known as Unicorn Global Limited, is falsely claiming to be a legitimate foreign exchange broker regulated by IIROC. This unregulated, offshore company is using a forged certificate claiming to be regulated by IIROC. IIROC does not issue certificates to regulated firms.

The regulator urges Canadian investors to exercise caution when dealing with non IIROC-regulated firms. It advises investors to confirm if investment firms are registered with IIROC by visiting IIROC's website. Investors can also check the background, qualifications, and any disciplinary history of investment advisors registered with IIROC's free AdvisorReport.
