Invast Global Review

Invast Global is a registered trading name of Invast Financial Services Pty Ltd. The company is based in Sydney and has offices in Tokyo and Hong Kong. Invast Financial Services Pty Ltd is regulated and authorised by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) under reference number 438283.

Invast Global provides access to over 40 global exchanges and aggregated bank liquidity, covering CFD trading on currencies, indices and commodities.

The only way customers can deposit money is by bank transfer. The company does not accept debit / credit cards, PayPal or other payment providers.

Invast Global offers a variety of trading terminals. They include the renowned MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, as well as iress Trader and FlexTrade MaxxTrader. Institutional clients have access to Electronic Communications Networks (ECNs) such as Bloomberg’s Execution Management System (EMSX) and the liquidity hub OneZero.

As an ASIC regulated brokerage firm, Invast Global still offers high leverage even to retail traders and the maximum level is 1:100 for major currency pairs.

The minimum amount to open an account is AUD25,000, which is relatively high for the industry. However, given its professional environment, Invast Global should be considered mostly by professionals.

If we look at the ‘Product Disclosure Statement’ document, we are going to assure that Invast Global is a market maker. That means the company determines the buy and sell prices of all provided instruments and is a counterparty on every client transaction. No matter how big the market maker is, a warning for slippage can also be found in the document. It indicates that stop loss orders are not guaranteed and can be executed at much worse price than requested. In addition, there is written that you could lose more than what you invested.

We can conclude Invast Global is a strictly regulated company with a long history. However, trading conditions are suitable only for professional traders, or institutional clients.
