Based on my close review of available information about Shaw and Partners, I did not find any clear mention of a free demo account being offered. The brokerage emphasizes managed accounts, goal-based portfolios, and tailored investment strategies for real-money clients. Their main focus seems to be on full-service wealth management and institutional dealing rather than providing trading platforms with practice or demo environments commonly found at many retail-focused forex brokers. For me, the lack of readily available information about demo accounts is a potential concern—especially for less experienced traders or those wishing to test a broker's environment before making real investments. Access to a demo account is an important risk management tool that allows clients to familiarize themselves with a broker’s platform and services without putting capital at risk. Its absence limits my ability to assess their system and trading infrastructure in a risk-free manner. I also advise caution due to the “Exceeded” status of Shaw and Partners’ Australian license, which signals regulatory uncertainty. In my trading practice, I always prioritize transparency and up-to-date regulatory status, since these factors are critical to capital security. If a demo account is essential for you, it would be prudent to directly contact their support or consider alternatives with more clearly defined demo offerings.
