Why does regulation matters?

As a global regulated broker, VSTAR understands the importance of the regulation. It not only regulates the market but also ensures the safety of client funds. We will explain the importance of regulation and the safeguards we provide to our clients.
icon
The purpose of regulation is to regulate the market and protect the interests of investors. If we violate regulations, regulatory authorities will impose penalties, which may include fines or revocation of our license.
icon
Therefore, we are subject to strict supervision by regulatory bodies and must meet requirements in governance, financial condition, infrastructure, etc., to ensure our operations are more standardised.
icon
Safeguarding investor funds. Our acceptance of regulation means that client funds need to be held in designated custodian banks, separate from our own operating funds. This segregation ensures that we cannot use client funds to offset our own operating losses. Regulatory authorities regularly verify the sufficiency of funds in our accounts to ensure the safety of client funds. Additionally, compensation clauses are provided by regulatory bodies for bankruptcy or losses to safeguard investors' interests.
icon
We undergo rigorous scrutiny by regulatory bodies to ensure that our company meets requirements in capital, finance, compliance, and user protection to obtain a legal license. Clients can check our registration status through the websites of regulatory bodies, and regulatory authorities will enforce compliance with regulations, otherwise, penalties or license revocation may occur. As an international broker regulated by many countries, this also demonstrates our strength.
