Abstract:The Investors Compensation Fund (ICF) has withdrawn Coverdeal Holdings Ltd's membership in the ICF, which includes brands like Coverdeal FX, according to the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC).
The Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) today confirms that the Investors Compensation Fund (ICF) has withdrawn the ICF membership of Coverdeal Holdings Ltd, operator of brands such as Coverdeal FX.
It is noted that, in accordance with paragraph 6(3) of the Directive, the loss of ICF membership status does not mean loss of rights of covered clients to receive compensation in relation to investment operations carried out until the loss of membership status, if the conditions for compensation are fulfilled pursuant to the Directive, nor does it obstruct the initiation of the compensation procedure for covered clients.
The withdrawal of the ICF membership was announced shortly after CySECs decision to withdraw the Cyprus Investment Firm (CIF) authorisation of Coverdeal Holdings Ltd.
Lets note that Coverdeal Holdings operates a raft of online trading brands, such as Coverdeal FX and Globtrex. The list of domains the company operates includes:
www.coverdealfx.eu; www.coverdealfx.cz; www.coverdealfx.pl; www.coverdealfx.sk; www.globtrex.com; www.coverdealfx.com; www.coverdeal.eu; www.globtrex.co.za
Most of the above-mentioned websites are no longer active. Others are still up and running but show the following announcement:
Notification of Measures Related to the Termination
We would like to inform you that Coverdeal Holdings Ltd. (the “Company”) has decided to terminate its activities by requesting the renouncement of its license number 231/14 as a Cyprus Investment Firm.
Therefore, the Company does not accept any new clients, and any existing clients will not be able to trade in their account, or to enter any positions unrelated to the closing/termination of their open positions.
We kindly ask you to close/liquidate all open positions and withdraw any available balance on your account by 15/11/2020 at 18:00 GMT+3. The withdrawal of your funds will be processed in accordance with your valid documents.

Have you experienced issues with Pepperstone deposit & withdrawal processing? From your experience, do you feel that the Australia-based forex broker causes losses to its clients? Did the brokerage entity freeze your account and give you a margin call? All these trading allegations have been rampant on broker review platforms such as WikiFX. This Pepperstone review article takes a close look at the user complaints, especially in 2026. Additionally, we have given an overview of the regulatory framework under which the brokerage entity operates.

Some broker comparisons end with a confident "go with this one." This is not one of them — and that honesty is exactly what makes it worth reading. Wundersys and tradgrip are two young, offshore-registered brokers that keep popping up in front of beginner traders, often through aggressive online marketing. Both promise the usual buffet: tight spreads, generous leverage, multiple account tiers. And both, according to WikiFX, sit near the very bottom of the safety scale. So instead of crowning a champion, this comparison is really about something more useful: learning to read the warning signs, understanding the small differences that still matter, and knowing why "the better of two risky options" is still a conversation about risk.

If you trade forex from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, or Nepal, you already know the quiet truth that eats into every trader's results: it is not just the market that decides whether you profit — it is the cost of getting in and out of each trade. Shave a couple of dollars off your commission on every lot, multiply it across hundreds of trades a year, and you are looking at the difference between a strategy that works and one that bleeds out slowly. South Asian traders are some of the most cost-conscious in the world, and rightly so. So we pulled the data on the brokers most often recommended for the region, cross-checked every name on WikiFX, and ranked them by the one number that matters most here: what they actually charge you to trade. Before the list, one quick lesson that will make this whole ranking click.
