In the scheme of things, eToro is a bit wet behind the ears. Founded in 2006, eToro is still feeling its way around and trying to establish a secure customer base. That’s not to say that eToro is struggling; in fact, it has quickly become one of the most well-known online forex brokerages in the world. Given its rapid rate of growth, there’s little doubt that eToro will continue to rise in prominence as time goes by.
eToro’s corporate headquarters are located in the British Virgin Islands; its administrative offices are located in Cyprus. However, eToro also maintains offices at several other major cities including New York City, Singapore, Dubai and Sydney, Australia. In this way, eToro is able to accommodate the customer service needs of clients around the world with ease.
Key Registrations
Many online foreign exchange market brokers proudly display their key registrations on their websites; this is not the case with eToro. As it is headquartered in the British Virgin Islands, it is possible that eToro simply doesn’t fall under the jurisdiction of any of the major regulatory bodies that many other forex brokers do.
