Show traders that you provide quality executions with fair pricing.
The Financial Commission has partnered with VerifyMyTrade to provide both brokers and customers with the ability to access trade execution quality. The simple to use process analyzes historical trade data on a monthly basis to determine satisfactory trade executions overall. Clients can check their broker’s execution certification with the Financial Commission on a monthly basis by accessing our Members section.
Similar to the “best execution” requirements in major international jurisdictions, the VMT certification service provides an added layer of transparency for brokers and their customers by highlighting the quality of trade executions.
The VMT certification is provided at a discounted basis to approved members of the Financial Commission*. Brokers who have successfully gone through certification are highlighted in our Members section with a special VMT badge.
*VMT’s Execution Certification service is provided to approved members with a 50% discount – EUR 500 per month and is subject to the member being in good standing with the Commission per the Commission’s Rules and Guidelines. The 50% discount for Execution Certification will be cancelled for brokers who cease membership with the Financial Commission. Commission members are solely responsible for submitting data to VMT on a regular basis in order to maintain certification.

How does it work?
- It works in real-time by scoring each trade against the trade blotter to determine if it was executed within the acceptable market range.
- Trade blotter is based on the Tradefora Composite Index (TCI), which is using real-time pricing from 100+ brokers across 140 supported instruments (main FX pairs, precious metals, energy, and crypto) in order to obtain an aggregated average market price.
- TradeGuard’s benchmarking technology takes into account not only spreads but also commissions, resulting in a much clearer and a more representative true pricing index
- All the trades are evaluated tick-by-tick with millisecond precision
- This market price is used as a benchmark reference point to assess the quality of trade execution.
