Risk scorecard
Each area is scored 0 (clean) to 10 (worst). Higher means more risk.
Regulation
7/10 · HighNo licence confirmed anywhere. The single claim gave no number, offered no verification link, described a light Cayman registration rather than a trading licence, and attached it to the parent rather than the contracting entity. The register itself could not be searched.
Identity & transparency
7/10 · HighEntity name, registered address, phone and email were published and matched an independent listing, but ownership and management stayed opaque, no registry entry or Legal Entity Identifier could be opened, and a Cayman address sat alongside a Jakarta phone line.
Withdrawals & conduct
3/10 · LowNo complaints about money being held back, refused or reduced were found on any platform. Scored low, though not at the clean anchor, because there is also no positive evidence that client withdrawals were ever paid.
Reputation
6/10 · HighAlmost no public footprint at all. No review page for the website, no forum discussion, and one second hand account of persistent sales pressure. That is thin for a firm describing itself as serving wealthy clients worldwide.
Website claims
6/10 · HighAn unverified regulatory claim attributed to the parent company and an unverifiable Best Hedge Fund Manager 2020 award used as the headline banner. No fabricated licence number was found, and the age claim matched the domain record.
Operational history
5/10 · ModerateThe domain dates to January 2018 with a continuous single brand archive trail, which is genuine history, but the company could not be dated and the whole operation is now defunct with the main domain deregistered.
Who they are
A quick desk file on the company behind the brand.
- Brand: CCAM
- Legal entity: City Credit Asset Management Co. Ltd, described on its own site as a Cayman holding company and a wholly owned subsidiary of CCAM Co. Ltd
- Registered: 4th Floor, Harbour Place, 103 South Church Street, Grand Cayman KY1-1002, Cayman Islands. This is a corporate services building used as the registered office of many companies.
- Website: ccamgroup.net, live from 2018 until roughly 2025. The domain has since been deregistered and no longer exists. A second domain, ccaml.net, was only ever used for email.
- Only licence: None confirmed. The site asserted that its parent was administered by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority under the Securities Investment Business Law, with no number and no register link.
- Offers: Asset management for what it called sophisticated and high net worth investors. Named areas were currency arbitrage trading, multi-manager trading strategies, real estate projects and infrastructure projects.
- Not accepted: No retail trading platform, account types, spreads or leverage were ever advertised. We found no MetaTrader server and no public deposit or cashier page.
- Age claim: The site carried a 2017 copyright line. The domain was registered in January 2018, so the two are consistent.
- Contact on file: A Jakarta telephone number, +62 21 50889715, alongside the Cayman registered address.

Why we reached this verdict
How the evidence adds up.
This is an honest unknown rather than a finding. Two separate things had to be checked, and neither could be reached.
- The regulatory claim could not be tested. CCAM said its parent was administered by CIMA under the Securities Investment Business Law. CIMA does publish a searchable list of licensed and registered entities, but the search is protected by an image challenge that we will not work around. The Cayman Islands General Registry, which would show whether the company exists and when it was incorporated, is only open to holders of a paid account. Third party mirrors of both were unavailable. An unreachable register is a gap in our evidence, never a finding against the firm and never a pass.
- The company itself could not be independently placed. There is no Legal Entity Identifier for City Credit Asset Management Co. Ltd, and we could not open a registry entry. So we can name the entity but we cannot date it or confirm it.
- The wording of the claim is weak on its own terms. It gave no licence number and no verification link, and it attached the regulatory status to the parent company rather than to the entity a client would have dealt with. The regime it describes, covering business done only for sophisticated or high net worth persons, is a light registration under the Cayman Securities Investment Business Act rather than a full licence, and it is not a retail trading permission in any case.
- The operation has shut down. The main domain was already redirecting to a parked advertising page by July 2025 and has since been removed from the registry. The email domain has no mail records. Whatever CCAM was, it is not trading now.
- Nothing adverse was found either. No regulator warning list names CCAM or its website. We found no reports of money being held back, no withdrawal disputes and no enforcement action. The only user account we located described persistent sales pressure to invest, which is a marketing concern rather than evidence that funds were lost.
- One apparent lead was a different company. A set of angry reviews attached to a similar name belongs to a UK flooring contractor with no connection to this firm. We excluded it rather than letting a name coincidence become an accusation.
- Why the figure is 50. Our own evidence based reading of the six dimensions came out around 60 percent, driven by an unverifiable regulatory claim and a very thin public footprint. Because the minimum evidence set is incomplete, we publish the honest midpoint of 50 instead. A firm nobody could check should not read as a safe one, and it should not read as a proven bad one either.
- A note on the score floors. A sweep of more than two platforms turned up no reviews of any kind, positive or negative, which would normally lift the published figure. That adjustment does not apply to an insufficient evidence result, because raising the number would assert a wrongdoing we never established.
- On the age. The website ran continuously under one brand from 2018 to 2025, which is real history. But we could not date the company, so the roughly eight year track record rests on the domain alone and should be treated as an upper bound.
Evidence ledger
Every finding, with its source and how strongly it points.
E1The archived homepage identifies the operator as City Credit Asset Management Co. Ltd, carries a 2017 copyright line and leads with a Best Hedge Fund Manager 2020 Cayman Island award banner.
E2The company's own About page states it is a Cayman holding company and a wholly owned subsidiary of CCAM Co. Ltd, and that CCAM Co. Ltd is administered by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority under the Securities Investment Business Law for sophisticated and high net worth investors. No licence number and no verification link appear anywhere on the page.
E3The contact page gives a registered address of 4th Floor, Harbour Place, 103 South Church Street, Grand Cayman, alongside a Jakarta telephone number, +62 21 50889715, and an email at the ccaml.net domain.
E4The services page describes asset management and tailored investment strategies for high net worth, corporate and institutional clients. No trading platform, account types, spreads, leverage or deposit facility appears anywhere in the site's page inventory.
E5The main website domain ccamgroup.net no longer resolves. A public DNS lookup returns a non-existent domain response, confirming the site is unreachable rather than merely offline.
E6The archive record shows ccamgroup.net serving broker content continuously from June 2018 through to 2025 under a single brand, with no change of company name, template or story across that period.
E7The second domain on file, ccaml.net, was re-registered from scratch on 29 July 2026 through the registrar Gname, with an expiry of July 2027. Its creation date therefore post-dates the collapse of the main website.
E8Historic captures of ccaml.net show a registrar holding page titled as a domain registered with a Hong Kong provider. The domain was never a working website and was used only for the company's email address.
E9The ccaml.net domain currently publishes no mail exchange records, so the op-enquiry address the company gave for contact can no longer receive email.
E10The Cayman regulator's public register of licensed and registered entities could not be searched. The lookup form requires an image based verification step, which we do not attempt to work around, so no entry and no absence of an entry could be recorded.
E11CIMA states that persons carrying on securities investment business must hold a Securities Investment Business Licence, and that it investigates those undertaking such business without one. This is the framework the company's claim referred to.
E12No Legal Entity Identifier exists for City Credit Asset Management Co. Ltd. The global LEI database returns zero records for the exact legal name, so the entity could not be corroborated from that source.
E13A cluster of one star complaints found under a similar short name belongs to a UK flooring contractor, describes unfinished building work and building deposits, and mentions no connection to the Cayman company or either of its domains. These reports were excluded from this assessment.
The other side
The strongest case in this broker’s favour.
There is a reasonable innocent reading of everything above, and it deserves stating plainly.
- An asset manager serving wealthy and institutional clients is not a retail broker and does not need a retail broker licence. Nothing on the site advertised leverage, spreads, account tiers or a trading terminal. On its own material this was a fund and portfolio management business, and its regulatory shape would be judged by different rules.
- Cayman really does operate a registration regime under the Securities Investment Business Act for firms dealing only with sophisticated or high net worth persons. CCAM's wording matches that regime closely. It is entirely possible the registration was genuine and simply cannot be seen from outside.
- The website ran under one name, one brand and one address for around seven years, with a continuous archive trail and no rebranding, no template swaps and no change of story. Scam infrastructure rarely sits still that long.
- The company never published a fake licence number. There is no fabricated reference to check and no borrowed credential. Overstating a status is different from inventing one, and we found no false number anywhere.
- No regulator anywhere has named this firm or its website, in a sweep run on 27 August 2026 across the major warning lists.
- Not one person, on any platform we searched, said CCAM took their money and did not give it back. For an alleged investment fraud, that absence matters.
- Companies close for ordinary reasons. A firm winding down, losing its Cayman renewal or simply ceasing to trade will leave exactly the trail we see: a lapsed domain and a dead mailbox. That is not by itself evidence of an exit scam.
- The share of the name with a larger, genuinely licensed brokerage group is not something we could turn into a finding. CCAM's domain and copyright predate that group's Cayman launch, CCAM never claimed its licences, and we treat the similarity as unresolved rather than as impersonation.
What would change this
What we would need to see to revise the verdict.
This verdict is deliberately reversible. Any of the following would move it.
- A CIMA register result showing CCAM Co. Ltd or City Credit Asset Management Co. Ltd as a licensee or registered person, with dates and status, would settle the regulatory question and push this towards a low risk reading.
- The same search returning nothing, run by someone able to reach it, would convert an unverified claim into a false one and push this towards a scam finding.
- A Cayman General Registry extract giving the incorporation date, registration number and current standing would let us date the company and complete the track record properly.
- Any first hand account with real detail, meaning amounts, dates or transfer records, describing money that was not returned, would change this decisively.
- A demand for an extra payment before releasing funds, reported credibly even once, would be treated as an advance fee pattern and would carry the verdict on its own.
- A warning or alert from any regulator naming ccamgroup.net or City Credit Asset Management Co. Ltd would be conclusive.
- Evidence that the same people relaunched under a new brand, tied by the registered address, the Jakarta phone number, the site template or the parent entity, would carry this history forward to the successor.
- Conversely, an orderly public wind down, or audited accounts showing client assets returned, would close this as a defunct but honest business.

Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about this broker’s safety.
Is CCAM a scam?
We could not establish that, in either direction. CCAM has shut down and the two records that would settle the question, the Cayman regulator's register and the Cayman company registry, are both closed to public search. We found no regulator warning and no reports of clients losing money, but we also could not verify its only regulatory claim.
Is CCAM regulated?
No regulation has been confirmed. The company stated that its parent, CCAM Co. Ltd, was administered by the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority under the Securities Investment Business Law. It never published a licence number or a link to the register, and we could not open the register to check.
Can I still open an account or trade with CCAM?
No. The main website, ccamgroup.net, has been removed from the domain registry and does not load. The second domain, ccaml.net, serves no website and has no working email. There is nothing operating under this name today.
Was CCAM a forex broker?
It did not present itself as one. Its own pages described asset management for wealthy and institutional investors, covering currency arbitrage, multi-manager strategies, real estate and infrastructure. We found no trading platform, no account types, no spreads or leverage and no MetaTrader server.
What is a Cayman Securities Investment Business registration worth?
Less than most people assume. Cayman law lets firms dealing only with sophisticated or high net worth clients register under a lighter regime rather than hold a full licence. It carries considerably less supervision, and it is not a permission to run a retail trading business.
Who owned CCAM?
That is not publicly established. The site named a parent called CCAM Co. Ltd, but Cayman beneficial ownership is held privately and the registry is not openly searchable. We found no Legal Entity Identifier and no verified management details.
How old was CCAM?
The website ran from January 2018 until around 2025, roughly seven years, with a continuous archive trail under one brand. We could not date the company itself, so treat that figure as an upper bound rather than a confirmed track record.
Why is a Cayman company using an Indonesian phone number?
Its contact page paired a Grand Cayman registered address with a Jakarta telephone number. That pattern usually means the company is incorporated offshore while the people running it are somewhere else. It is common and not illegal, but it tells you the Cayman address is paperwork rather than an office.
Is CCAM connected to City Credit Capital?
We could not establish any link and we have not treated the shared words in the name as evidence. CCAM's website and copyright predate that group's Cayman launch, and CCAM never claimed its licences. We deliberately kept the two separate rather than assign one firm's record to the other.
I saw bad reviews for a company called CCAM. Are those about this firm?
Probably not. The complaints that surface most easily belong to a UK flooring contractor trading under a similar short name. They describe building deposits, not investments, and mention no connection to the Cayman company. We excluded them from this report.
Is my money safe if I invested with CCAM?
We cannot reassure you. No confirmed regulator stands behind the company, there is no compensation scheme, and the business has now gone offline. If you still hold a balance, collect your records and take advice promptly.
What should I do if I lost money to CCAM?
Gather every contract, statement and transfer record you have, then report it to the police where you live and to the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority, which takes complaints about firms claiming to be regulated there. Do not pay anyone who offers to recover the funds for an upfront fee.
What should I check before depositing with any firm like this?
Find the licence number, then look it up on the regulator's own register rather than trusting a badge on the website. Check that the licence covers the exact service being sold to you, and that the company named on the licence is the same one that will hold your money.
What we recommend
The practical takeaway from everything above.
Treat CCAM as unresolved and inactive. If you are looking at it today, there is nothing to sign up to.
- Do not send money to anyone presenting themselves as CCAM. The company's own website and email domain no longer work, so any approach using this name now is coming from somewhere else.
- Be especially careful with contact by phone, messaging apps or social media from someone citing a Cayman asset manager. The registered address on this file belongs to a corporate services building, not to a trading floor.
- If you invested with CCAM and still hold a balance, gather everything you have now: contracts, statements, transfer confirmations, the names you dealt with and every message. Records like these get harder to reconstruct once a company disappears.
- Report a loss to the police in your own country first, and to the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority, which accepts complaints about entities claiming to be regulated there.
- Ignore any firm that offers to recover your money for a fee paid upfront. Approaches to people who have already lost money are a standard follow on fraud.
- Before using any replacement, check the regulator's own register yourself, look for the exact company name that would hold your money, and confirm the licence covers the service being sold to you.
