Based on my research and experience using Phillip Securities, I’ve found that they are somewhat conservative regarding leverage disclosures, especially compared to other global brokers. The firm is primarily regulated by Japan’s Financial Services Agency (FSA), and Japanese regulation is known for its strict rules on leverage—generally capping forex leverage at 25:1 for retail clients. From the information available, Phillip Securities does not outright publish a maximum leverage figure for major forex pairs on their public-facing documents or application process, which I interpret as an emphasis on risk management and regulatory adherence. For me, this approach signals a focus on client safety, but it also means less flexibility if I’m specifically seeking high-leverage opportunities. As for their other asset offerings—like securities, ETFs, and margin trading on domestic and overseas exchanges—Japanese law also imposes conservative limits, and Phillip’s descriptions indicate compliance with those guidelines. While this can mean less buying power compared to offshore brokers, it prioritizes stability, transparency, and long-term solvency, which I’ve learned are critical for long-term success. I recommend directly contacting Phillip Securities for the most current and asset-specific leverage details before deciding, as leverage can change based on regulatory policy and asset classification.
