FreshForex — where it wins, where it loses
FreshForex does not currently take a column outright against this field. It loses on tier-1 cover, published spread. Its cost per ten lots is not confirmed, so it is left out of the cost ordering rather than estimated.
Column by column
The split
Two lists, no averaging. A broker that takes a column outright appears on the left of it; one that gets beaten on a column appears on the right. Nothing is scored into a single number, because a single number hides which side you actually care about.
Wins on
No column where FreshForex takes the field outright.
Loses on
- tier-1 cover
- published spread
Cost per 10 lots is the EUR/USD spread cost of ten round-turn standard lots at the figure above, commission excluded. Where a broker publishes a "from" spread rather than an average, the comparison inherits that limitation — see the unconfirmed list further down.
Licensing
Which entity, which regulator, which number
Tier decides how much weight a licence carries in any safety column. Each row links to the page it was read from.
| Regulator | Number | Jurisdiction | Tier | Entity | Read from |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| None — St Vincent and the Grenadines company registration only (20623 BC 2012) | St Vincent and the Grenadines | Tier 3 | Riston Capital Ltd | freshforex.com |

Facts the comparison runs on
On the record
- FreshForex site pages state the brand is operated by Riston Capital Ltd, registered in St Vincent and the Grenadines under number 20623 BC 2012, with a registered office at Suite 305, Griffith Corporate Centre, Kingstown.
- The SVG Financial Services Authority does not license or supervise forex trading, so this is a company registration rather than financial regulation.
- No licence from a tier-1, EU or other prudential regulator was found for the brand (checked 9 August 2026).
