What the FCA says about SovereignFX

The Financial Conduct Authority added SovereignFX to its Warning List of unauthorised firms on 11 June 2026. The FCA advises consumers not to deal with this firm and not to transfer any money to it.

This article reflects the FCA Warning List as of 11 June 2026. Always verify the current status directly at fca.org.uk/consumers/warning-list before relying on this page.

How this type of fraud works

Forex and investment trading scams typically begin with unsolicited contact via social media or messaging apps, offering access to a trading platform with high or guaranteed returns. Victims are shown fabricated profits before being blocked from withdrawing funds or asked to pay fees to release money.

Warning signs to watch for

Guaranteed or very high monthly returns

Contact via WhatsApp, Telegram or social media

Profits shown but withdrawals blocked

Fees required to release funds

Not on FCA register

What you lose without FCA protection

Dealing with an FCA-authorised firm gives you access to the Financial Ombudsman Service and FSCS protection up to £85,000. Neither applies to unauthorised firms. The mandatory APP fraud reimbursement rules (October 2023) may require your bank to reimburse you if you transferred money — contact your bank immediately if you have already paid.

What to do if you have dealt with SovereignFX

Stop all payments immediately. Do not pay further fees to release funds — this is recovery fraud. Contact your bank fraud team to attempt recall. Report to Action Fraud on 0300 123 2040 and to the FCA at fca.org.uk/consumers/report-scam.

How to verify a firm is FCA authorised

Search register.fca.org.uk and verify the firm's contact details match exactly what you have been given. Also check fca.org.uk/consumers/warning-list. If contact details differ from the register, or the firm appears on the Warning List, do not proceed.
