Who is First Future Markets?
On the surface, First Future Markets looks like an ordinary forex and crypto broker. Its public site is presented at https://firstfuturemarkets.com/. But surface impressions are exactly what these operations rely on — the substance behind First Future Markets is where the problems begin.
Is First Future Markets regulated?
First Future Markets provides no verifiable regulatory licence. An unregulated broker answers to no one: it can freeze withdrawals, invent fees, and disappear with deposits, all without consequence. This alone is reason enough to stay away.
Red flags we identified
- Account dashboards that show “gains” with no real market exposure
- Unrealistic profit claims and pressure to deposit more
- Withdrawals reportedly blocked behind “taxes,” “fees” or account “upgrades”
- No credible physical address or verifiable corporate record
- Aggressive “account managers” coaching clients to deposit
Our analysis
First Future Markets does not claim to be licensed by any regulator; it only claims to be registered in Saint Lucia. While we can confirm that there is a company with the same name in the Saint Lucia International Financial Centre (IFC) registry, this registration only grants it International Business Company (IBC) status. This does not constitute a valid financial licence. The IFC neither regulates nor licences forex trading activities. Being unregulated is a major red flag for a fraudulent operation. Therefore, First Future Markets appears to be a scam.
Can you recover money lost to First Future Markets?
If you have deposited with First Future Markets, do not pay any further “fees” to withdraw — that is part of the trap. Funds sent to operations like this can sometimes be traced on-chain and pursued through the exchanges and processors that received them. Whether recovery is realistic depends on how you paid and how quickly you act.
