As a trader who has seen the importance of due diligence firsthand, I take potential risks with brokers very seriously, especially with those I consider for business payments or FX hedging. In my assessment of Ebury, several points give me pause. Although Ebury has been active for a number of years and claims regulation by the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority, the WikiFX context clearly states that both their Payment and Investment Advisory Licenses are “Exceeded.” In regulatory terms, this means the license may not currently be in effect or could be operating outside its official scope. That kind of ambiguity around regulation always makes me cautious; for me, solid and up-to-date regulatory standing is essential for trust. There’s another red flag I can’t ignore: WikiFX notes a “High potential risk” and highlights a “Suspicious Overrun,” which suggests possible issues with the firm operating beyond its designated permissions. For someone like me, who values transparency and close compliance, such descriptors require more investigation. Furthermore, the risk management index for Ebury is shown as zero, which simply isn’t reassuring for an institution handling business payments and complex transactions. Finally, I found limited information on Ebury’s fees and cost structure. As someone who likes to know exactly what I’ll be paying to avoid unexpected costs, this lack of clarity is a significant drawback. While some user reviews mention good customer support, these positive experiences do not outweigh the need for regulatory certainty. In short, before entrusting capital or sensitive business transactions to Ebury, I would need to see clearer documentation on licenses and risk controls. Taking a conservative stance, I believe it’s wise to consider these unresolved issues carefully before proceeding.
