The homepage advertises zero commissions, together with zero spreads on US stocks and major pairs including EUR/USD, JPY/USD and GBP/USD. No commission schedule, markup disclosure or financing-charge table is published, so how the broker actually earns from client trades is not disclosed.

We found no evidence of fraud, and several things check out: the operating company is real, registered and active, and the offshore licence number is a genuine one. But the setup is high risk. The site names no regulator, publishes no funding terms and no contact details, offers only its own platform, and the company that contracts with clients is not the company that holds the licence. Our verdict is high risk and unverified, not scam.

The website states that BABA INVESTMENT (SVG) LLC does not provide services to residents of certain jurisdictions, including the USA, Canada and North Korea. No other restrictions are listed, and the site does not say which countries it is licensed to serve.

Four are shown: Standard, Cent, ECN and Baba. Each is described in a sentence and shows its account currency (USD and EUR). No minimum deposit, spread, commission or leverage is published for any of them, so the tiers cannot meaningfully be compared.

The website advertises over 600 instruments: 80 forex pairs, 474 stocks, 27 cryptocurrencies, 17 indices, 8 metals and 29 futures. It does not publish a full instrument list, contract specifications, swap rates or trading hours.

The site claims withdrawals are instant. That is a marketing claim with nothing behind it: there is no published withdrawal policy, no fee schedule and no stated processing window, so the claim cannot be checked or held to. Treat it as unverified.

The website advertises instant deposit and withdrawal but publishes no payment methods, no fees, no processing times and no minimum or maximum amounts. Its legal documents are supplied only as scanned PDFs. The absence of any published funding terms is itself a significant transparency gap, and it means withdrawal conditions cannot be checked before you deposit.

One, and it is the broker's own: BABA Trader, described as an all-in-one platform for forex and CFDs. There is no MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5 or cTrader offering. A proprietary-only platform means no third-party expert advisors, no independent audit of execution and no way to take your setup elsewhere.

The homepage quotes leverage of 1:30 for retail clients and up to 1:500 for professional clients. It does not explain how a client qualifies as professional, nor does it publish per-instrument leverage caps or margin-call and stop-out levels.

The broker does not publish one. There is no minimum deposit figure on the website for any of the four account tiers, and no account-comparison table with deposit thresholds. You would have to ask the company directly before opening an account.

The website's risk warning names BABA INVESTMENT (SVG) LLC, incorporated in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines on 9 June 2020 with registration number 419. We confirmed that entry as active on the St. Vincent and the Grenadines Financial Services Authority entity register, whose records list Delany & Associates Corporate Services Ltd. as its registered agent. No directors, shareholders or beneficial owners are disclosed on the website.

Only offshore, and only indirectly. Our research links the brand to Seychelles securities dealer licence SD225, held in the name of BABA INVESTMENT (SEYCHELLES) LTD. That is a low-tier offshore permission with no client-money guarantee and no compensation scheme. Note that babafx.com does not name any regulator or licence number anywhere on the site, and the entity that contracts with clients in its risk warning is a Saint Vincent LLC, which is a company registration rather than a trading licence.
