As someone who has been active in the forex markets for many years, evaluating a broker's trustworthiness is absolutely essential for me. Looking at IFC, a few key factors immediately stand out. Despite its long history since being established in 1978 and its base in Jordan, the clearest concern is that IFC is currently unregulated by any recognized financial authority. In my experience, the absence of regulatory oversight introduces significant risks—regulation is a critical safety net that protects client funds, enforces fair practices, and ensures accountability in conflict resolution. Without this external oversight, traders have little recourse if disputes or irregularities occur. Additionally, IFC is flagged with a suspicious regulatory license and scope of business, highlighting a high potential risk. Even though the broker does offer demo accounts and claims to support financial brokerage and margin trading, the lack of transparency in regulation changes the risk profile substantially. For me personally, demo account availability can be useful for getting to know a platform, but it does little to offset the underlying risks posed by an unregulated broker. The stark warning and low reliability scores further reinforce my cautious approach. Given these facts, my approach is always to err on the side of caution. I would not consider IFC a trustworthy or reliable option for live trading, regardless of its longevity or product features. In my view, entrusting funds to a broker lacking robust regulation simply does not align with prudent risk management.
