Deposit Insurance

FiboGroup does not offer a deposit compensation scheme. This means that in the event of the broker's financial failure, investors would not be compensated.

Deposit insurance is crucial as it compensates investors if an authorized financial firm fails, providing an additional layer of security for client funds.

Our data comes from our sophisticated spread analyzer tool, which collects live account information and syncs with our performance analytics system. To compare all brokers and instruments with the latest live data, visit our spread analyzer tool. A spread is the difference between the bid (sell) and ask (buy) price of an asset and can vary widely between brokers and account types.

Some brokers charge higher spreads but no commission, while others charge both, making it crucial to assess the total cost, which includes both spread and commission. Our values reflect this all-in cost. Note that some brokers may set low costs on popular pairs like EURUSD but higher rates on other instruments.

Many brokers also advertise "as low as" spreads that may not reflect the true average or include commissions. Comparing true all-in cost averages across various instruments and asset classes is vital for accurate assessment.

Comparison to other Brokers

* As of July 10, 2024

Compared to other brokers, FiboGroup has a long-standing presence in the market since 1998. While it offers a high maximum leverage of 3000:1 and a variety of trading platforms, it falls short in user reviews and regulatory oversight compared to some leading brokers like IC Markets and Pepperstone.

Its spreads and costs are competitive, particularly in the commodities class, but lack detailed swap rate information. Overall, FiboGroup is a reliable broker with a decent popularity rating but could improve in transparency and user engagement.
