Direct answer
How do I find FCA regulated brokers?
Use the FCA Register at https://register.fca.org.uk/ — search the legal firm name, confirm status Authorised, read permissions and any restrictions, then match that exact company to your account agreement. BrokerMafia does not publish a paid list of “best FCA brokers”. See also https://brokermafia.com/guides/fca-register/.
Licenses and entities
Match the legal entity on your account agreement to a public register row. Brand names are not licenses.
| Entity | Regulator | ID | Label | Register |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Any shortlisted UK firm | FCA | Firm Reference Number | Registry fact | Verify |
| Authorised ≠ suitable for your strategy. | ||||

Verify before you send funds
- Read the legal entity on the account agreement (not just the brand logo).
- Look up that entity on the issuing regulator’s public register.
- Read the local PDS / FSG / Key Information Document for client-money and product rules.
- Test a small withdrawal before scaling size.
- Ignore star ratings, paid testimonials, and “trust indexes”.

A listing or keyword page is an index/education record. It is not a license confirmation, a rating, or an endorsement by the regulator or by BrokerMafia. Indexed ≠ licensed ≠ recommended.
