Reported as a scam / unregulated
Why Kerford Investments is on the register
Kerford Investments claims to be a top-rated and highly experienced financial trading provider while presenting neither details about its regulations nor legal documents (terms & conditions, risk disclosure, and privacy policy, etc.). Lacking the above information may be a distinct characteristic of unlicensed brokers, as legit brokers always present their accreditation and licenses in a prominent position. It is a red flag here. Besides, Kerford Investments shows two company addresses in the Republic of Panama and Jakarta, Indonesia. But please be informed that both the above countries have no regulatory body that regulates entities engaging in forex services. What’s more, it needs to be mentioned that we found a regulated firm named “Kerford Investments (UK) Limited”, which is authorized and regulated by the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) with only the authorized domain “www.kerford.co.uk.” The two companies are very similar in both company name and domain, so please pay attention to distinguish them carefully before investing. The truth is that Kerford Investments is not under valid regulation by any regulators to do forex. Investors’ funds in this broker are unsafe and cannot be protected by any law. Therefore, it is a scam.
If you have money with this broker
- Stop sending funds. Do not pay any further “fees”, “taxes” or “verification” charges to release a withdrawal — this is a common secondary scam.
- Preserve evidence. Save transaction IDs, wallet addresses, chat logs, and every screenshot before the account is closed.
- Report it. Notify your bank/exchange and your national financial regulator so the activity is on record.
- Get guidance. Tell us what happened and we will point you toward the right next step. We are a free public registry — we never charge any fees.
