Options12 is Not a Licensed Broker
The first item we check when we review a binary options brokers to find out if they are a legitimate or scam broker is a license. If a broker has a license, it should be from CySEC, ASIC, MAS or CFTC. Your country of residence determines which broker is legal for you.
Options12 does not have a license. To see an up to date list of licensed brokers, look here.
The primary reason that investors only trade at a licensed broker, is to ensure they will not have problem withdrawing their funds. On October 26th 2015, FINRA published an investor alert regarding offshore binary options brokers. Read the alert on FINRA’s website here.
Warning from ASIC Australia
“ASIC urges all investors considering trading in binary options to check they are dealing with an entity that holds an Australian financial services licence.”
