Who is CG Fintech?
CG Fintech markets itself as an online trading and investment service. Its public site is presented at https://www.cgtrade.com/. It claims to be based in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. As with most operations of this kind, the polished front end conceals a lack of the basic protections a real, regulated broker is required to provide.
Is CG Fintech regulated?
We could find no evidence that CG Fintech holds a valid licence from any recognised financial regulator. Trading client funds without authorisation is one of the strongest indicators of a scam — there is no regulator to complain to, and no protection for your money.
Red flags we identified
- Aggressive “account managers” coaching clients to deposit
- Unrealistic profit claims and pressure to deposit more
- Account dashboards that show “gains” with no real market exposure
- Opaque or anonymous corporate ownership
- Offshore or shell-company registration used to avoid oversight
Our analysis
CG Fintech claims to be a broker with multiple entities, operated by CGTrade (Mauritius) Limited regulated by the Financial Services Commission (FSC) in Mauritius, CG Fintech HK Limited registered in Hong Kong, and CG Trade Inc registered in Saint Lucia, offering a range of investment products to traders, including Forex, Indices, Precious Metals, Cryptocurrency, Energies, Stocks for trading in global markets. Upon investigation, we found that CGTrade (Mauritius) Limited is not authorized and regulated by the FSC. CG Fintech HK Limited is not supervised by the Securities and Futures Commission(SFC) in Hong Kong. CG Trade Inc is not registered with the International Financial Centre (IFC) in Saint Lucia. The truth is that CG Fintech is not regulated by any regulators. Letting it hold or control investors'money is unsafe, and the money can not be protected by any laws. CG Fintech is a scam.
