Taurex — where it wins, where it loses
Taurex does not currently take a column outright against this field. It loses on 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 Taurex takes the field outright.
Loses on
- 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

Facts the comparison runs on
On the record
- Taurex Limited (England and Wales company 11077380) is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority under firm reference number 816055, with a registered office at 4 Eastcheap, London.
- Taurex Global Limited is registered in Seychelles under number 8428731-1 and holds Seychelles FSA securities dealer licence SD092.
- The Taurex brand grew out of Zenfinex; the group still lists Zenfinex Global LLC, registered in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines under number 138 LLC 2019.
- The Saint Vincent and the Grenadines FSA does not regulate forex or CFD trading, so the SVG registration is a company registration rather than a trading licence.
- The group's UAE entity holds Capital Market Authority Category 5 licence 20200000224 and is not authorised to hold client money or client assets.
