Natallia on Navigating the ASIC FX Brokers’ Register and, what does it mean to “Make a Market” in Australia?Hi Keat: Thank you for reading the article. The license you have described above is for financial advice only, for wholesale clients only. Since "make market" permission is missing, this entity is not allowed to execute orders on behalf of the clients.

It takes a very big budget to make any kind of dent in the UK or key EU markets and it does not look like he has a big budget.
