Strict Rules in Aussie Market

Australia is one of the mature markets for forex and CFDs trading. Activities in the country are tightly regulated by ASIC, and local authorization is mandatory.

Recently, the Aussie regulator has become strict with compliances around design and distribution obligations (DDO). It took action against several brokerages and even suspended the operations of the CFDs broker, Mitrade Global last month for 21 days. Other renowned brands flagged by ASIC were Saxo and Interactive Brokers.
