Moderate contract risk

Fidus publishes two different fee schedules at the same time, and they disagree on what holding an account costs. Moving USD 1,000 in and out costs USD 60 before you place a single trade. The agreement lets Fidus freeze your money on suspicion without giving reasons. It also warns that pooled funds may be used to meet other clients' debts. Fidus is a genuine CySEC firm and states that 68% of its retail clients lose money.

Broker Summary

What Wikilix has recorded about FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS: its history, the licences it holds, its trading conditions and its fees.

FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS Broker Overview

FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS is the trading brand of Fidus Investments Cyprus Limited, a Cyprus investment firm based in Nicosia and authorised by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission under licence number 326/17. It has held that authorisation since May 2017 and offers MetaTrader 4 and a multi-product platform to clients who open a Personal, Corporate or Joint account. Funding is by bank transfer only, with no published minimum deposit, and trading costs are charged as commission per instrument and per market rather than through a published spread.

FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS Regulation and License

The operating company and the licensed entity are the same: Fidus Investments Cyprus Limited, registered in Cyprus under company number HE355918, with its office at Aisopou 10 Aglantzia, 2113 Nicosia. Its regulator is the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC), the statutory financial regulator of the Republic of Cyprus and its competent authority under MiFID II, and its Cyprus Investment Firm authorisation carries the number 326/17 with an effective date of 12 May 2017. The authorisation appears on the regulator's own register of Cypriot investment firms, with no qualifying status beside the number and no published expiry date. CySEC separately publishes www.fidusinvestments.eu as this firm's approved domain, and that is the website the firm trades through.

Is FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS Regulated?

Yes, and this is confirmed regulation rather than an unverified claim: the licence number was found on the CySEC register against the same company name, with the company registration number and the approved domain matching as well. One qualification concerns the firm's own website rather than the register. The site footer prints the licence as 326/27, one digit different from the 326/17 that CySEC publishes, so a reader checking the footer number against the register will not find it.

FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS License 326/17

Licence 326/17 is a Cyprus Investment Firm authorisation held by Fidus Investments Cyprus Limited. The register prints two investment services under it: reception and transmission of orders in relation to one or more financial instruments, and execution of orders on behalf of clients. Dealing on own account is not among them. Three ancillary services are also shown: safekeeping and administration of financial instruments, granting credits or loans in connection with a transaction, and foreign exchange services connected to the provision of investment services.

Is FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS Safe?

The firm's regulatory standing is the strongest point in its favour, but an authorisation is not the same as safety and says nothing about how an individual account will be handled. What is established is that one named Cyprus company holds the licence, operates the website CySEC approves for it, and has done so since 2017. What a prospective client should weigh against that is how little the firm publishes about trading itself: no maximum leverage, no spread figure and no instrument counts appear anywhere in its material, there is no help centre or published FAQ, and the only funding route is a bank transfer from an account in the client's own name. The firm's own risk disclosure states that 68 per cent of its retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs.

FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS Account Types

Three account categories are offered on the client registration form: Personal, Corporate and Joint. They describe who holds the account rather than different trading terms, and the firm publishes no separate minimum deposit, leverage or commission for any of them. The commission schedule applies by instrument and by market, so costs do not vary by account category.

FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS Spreads, Commissions and Fees

Costs are commission based and no spread figures are published. Commission is charged per instrument and per market rather than per lot, and opening and closing a position are charged separately. Futures cost 35 USD, EUR, GBP or CHF a contract, or 3,500 JPY, and forex and currency options cost 35 USD or the currency equivalent per 100,000 units of the price currency. Shares and single stock CFDs are charged at 5 per mille on most markets and 7 per mille on the Australian market and the Athens exchange, each with a market minimum of about 50 in the market currency, and purchases on the United Kingdom market also carry 0.5 per cent stamp duty. Bonds and euro notes are charged at 2.5 per mille. On top of trading commission there is custody of 0.25 per mille a month with a 10 USD minimum, an account fee of 100 USD a year, 20 USD on closure and 2 USD a month on a dormant account.

FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS Leverage

No maximum leverage is published. The firm's fee and commission material is detailed but states no leverage cap, and none of the three account categories carries a published limit, so no figure is recorded for this broker.

FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS Trading Platforms

MetaTrader 4 is offered for Windows, Android, Linux and Apple computers, with charting and one click order entry from charts. The firm also offers a multi-product platform, whose name it does not publish, for trading shares, CFDs, futures, options and fixed income through one gateway. The site refers to a download centre but publishes no direct download link, so the software is obtained through the firm rather than from its website.

FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS Deposits and Withdrawals

Bank transfer is the only funding route published, for both deposits and withdrawals. Deposits go to accounts held at Bank of Cyprus and Societe Generale Bank Cyprus in euro, US dollars, sterling, Swiss francs, Canadian dollars and Australian dollars. Third party payments are not accepted, so money must move to and from an account in the client's own name. No minimum deposit or withdrawal is published in the deposit method document or the fee schedule. A deposit fee applies per transfer, 20 EUR on euro amounts up to 50,000 and 40 EUR above it, and withdrawals cost 0.15 per cent of the amount with a floor and a ceiling in each currency, 25 EUR and 250 EUR for euro. Withdrawal requests received on a business day within business hours are processed the same day, and otherwise on the next business day.

FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS Support

Support is reached on a main line at +357 22 502900, a trading desk at +357 22 502999 and a single general address at info@fidusinvestments.eu, with live chat during business hours. Published hours are Monday to Friday 09:00 to 23:00 Cyprus time, with back office processing from 08:00 to 13:30. The firm states that its services are provided only from its Nicosia head office and only through its approved domain.

FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS Pros and Cons

  • A Cyprus Investment Firm authorisation confirmed on the CySEC register, held by the same company that operates the website.
  • The approved domain CySEC publishes for the firm is the site it actually trades through.
  • A commission schedule published in full, covering futures, forex, shares, CFDs and bonds market by market.
  • No maximum leverage, no spread figure and no instrument counts published anywhere.
  • Bank transfer is the only funding route, from an account in the client's own name.
  • Account, closure, dormancy and custody charges apply on top of trading commission.
  • No help centre or published FAQ, and no direct platform download.

FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS Review and Assessment

Fidus Investments Cyprus Limited is a small Cyprus investment firm with a conventional onshore authorisation and a traditional offering: MetaTrader 4, commission charged per instrument and per market, and funding only by bank transfer. The published cost structure suits a client trading in reasonable size across futures, shares, bonds and CFDs, and suits a small account poorly, because the per market minimums and the fixed account charges fall heavily on small tickets. The most important thing to settle before funding an account is what the firm does not publish, which is much of what a trader needs to know: the leverage available, the spreads and the instrument list. Its banned jurisdictions clause also names a set of countries it will not accept clients from, and describes that list as non-exhaustive and subject to change at the firm's discretion.

How we know — 9 sources
  1. 1The refused countries come from the Company's General Investment Services Terms and Conditions, under the heading "BANNED JURISDICTIONS AND LEGAL AGE": "Currently the Company does not accept new clients and/or the opening of new accounts from the following jurisdictions: 'Algeria', 'Belarus', 'Cuba', 'Islamic Republic of Iran', 'Myanmar (Burma)', 'North Cyprus', 'North Korea', 'Russia', 'South Sudan', 'Sudan', 'Syrian Arab Republic', 'Yemen', 'Zimbabwe', 'Regions of Ukraine Crimea, Donetsk, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia'." Source: https://www.fidusinvestments.eu/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/INVESTMENT-SERVICES-TERMS-AND-CONDITIONS2023.pdf, linked from https://www.fidusinvestments.eu/disclosures/
  2. 2"North Cyprus" is named in that clause. It has no standard country code, so it appears here only in the Company's own words and is in neither list.
  3. 3"Regions of Ukraine Crimea, Donetsk, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia" are regions within a country, not countries, so they are named here in words and are in neither list. Ukraine itself is not named as a banned jurisdiction, so it is in neither list.
  4. 4The same clause adds that the list "is non-exhaustive and the updated list of banned countries, is subject to alteration at any time the Company deems proper upon its sole discretion", and the terms separately require that a client not be subject to sanctions maintained by the UN Security Council, the United States, the United Kingdom or the European Union. Neither wording names a further country, so neither adds a country to the probably refused list.
  5. 5No accepted list is given. The client registration form at https://secure.fidusinvestments.eu/en/register offers the complete standard list of 249 countries in every selector, including the residential address and nationality fields, and each of the banned jurisdictions above remains selectable there. A wholly unfiltered selector states no onboarding policy, so it is not read as acceptance of any country and it does not displace the terms clause above.
  6. 6The Company publishes no dedicated restricted-countries or accepted-countries page, no FAQ or help centre, no deposit or withdrawal page and no partner or introducing-broker terms. Its published page set is the thirteen pages in its own sitemap at https://www.fidusinvestments.eu/wp-sitemap-posts-page-1.xml. The page at https://www.fidusinvestments.eu/legal-documentation/ loads but carries no content; the legal document set is published at https://www.fidusinvestments.eu/disclosures/
  7. 7The footer disclaimer at https://www.fidusinvestments.eu/ limits the channel rather than the client's country: "The Company's services are provided only from its head office in Nicosia, Cyprus, and only through this approved domain". The site is published in English only and offers no language variants.
  8. 8Iran rests on the banned-jurisdictions clause above, which names the "Islamic Republic of Iran" in the Company's own terms. The Company publishes no Persian-language site, page or registration flow: /fa and /fa-ir are not served on the main site, and the client portal's /fa/register path returns the identical English form.
  9. 9The United States is not a banned jurisdiction in the Company's terms. Its only United States provisions are tax-reporting ones under FATCA and CRS, which classify reportable persons rather than refuse them, so the United States is in neither list.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about FIDUS INVESTMENTS CYPRUS

Most Popular Questions

Three account categories are offered on the client registration form: Personal, Corporate and Joint. They describe who holds the account rather than different trading terms, and no separate minimum deposit, leverage or commission is published for any of them. The commission schedule applies by instrument and by market, so costs do not vary by account category.

The Company's own fee schedule prices futures, forex and currency options, forex CFDs, shares on the United States, Canadian, United Kingdom, Swiss, French, other European and Australian markets, single stock CFDs including the Athens exchange, and bonds and euro notes. Its risk warning also names forward rate agreements and over the counter CFDs. No instrument counts are published, so the number of symbols in each class is not stated.

The operating company is Fidus Investments Cyprus Limited, registered in Cyprus under number HE355918, with its office at Aisopou 10 Aglantzia, 2113 Nicosia. It is the same company that holds the CySEC authorisation, so the brand and the licensed entity are one and the same, and the CySEC register prints the registration number for this licensee as 355918. The Company states that its services are provided only from that Nicosia head office and only through its approved domain.

Withdrawal requests received on a business day within business hours are processed the same day, and otherwise on the next business day. The money then moves by bank transfer, so how long it takes to arrive depends on the banks involved. The fee is 0.15 per cent of the amount, subject to a minimum and a maximum in each currency, which for euro is 25 EUR and 250 EUR. Withdrawals can only be made to an account in the client's own name.

Commission is charged per instrument and per market rather than per lot, and opening and closing a position are charged separately. Futures cost 35 USD, EUR, GBP or CHF a contract, or 3,500 JPY, and forex and currency options cost 35 USD or the currency equivalent per 100,000 units of the price currency. Shares and single stock CFDs are charged at 5 per mille on most markets and 7 per mille on the Australian market and the Athens exchange, each with a market minimum of about 50 in the market currency. There are also account charges of 100 USD a year, 20 USD on closure and 2 USD a month on a dormant account, plus monthly custody of 0.25 per mille with a 10 USD minimum.

Fidus Investments Cyprus offers MetaTrader 4 and a multi-product platform. It is published for Windows, Android, Linux and Apple computers, with charting and one click order entry from charts described as its main features. The site refers to a download centre but publishes no direct download link, so the software is obtained through the Company rather than from its website. The multi-product platform, whose name the firm does not publish, lets clients trade shares, CFDs, futures, options and fixed income through one gateway.

Yes. The Company's own investment services terms name twelve countries it will not accept new clients from: Algeria, Belarus, Cuba, Iran, Myanmar, North Korea, Russia, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, Yemen and Zimbabwe. The same clause also names northern Cyprus and the Ukrainian regions of Crimea, Donetsk, Luhansk and Zaporizhzhia, and describes the list as non-exhaustive and subject to change at the Company's discretion. The United States is not named as a banned jurisdiction, and the only United States provisions in the terms are tax reporting ones under FATCA and CRS.

Yes. The Company publishes a main line on +357 22 502900, a trading desk on +357 22 502999 and one general e-mail address at info@fidusinvestments.eu, and offers live chat during business hours. Its stated hours are Monday to Friday 09:00 to 23:00 Cyprus time, with back office processing from 08:00 to 13:30. Its office is at Aisopou 10 Aglantzia, 2113 Nicosia, Cyprus, and it states that its services are provided only from that head office.

Fidus Investments Cyprus does not publish a maximum leverage figure. Its fee and commission material is detailed but states no leverage cap, and none of its three account categories carries a published limit, so no figure is recorded for this broker. Anyone who needs a number should ask the Company directly before funding an account.

Bank transfer is the only funding route the Company publishes, for both deposits and withdrawals. Deposits go to accounts held at Bank of Cyprus and Societe Generale Bank Cyprus, in euro, US dollars, sterling, Swiss francs, Canadian dollars and Australian dollars. Third party payments are not accepted, so money must move to and from an account in the client's own name. No card or e-wallet funding is published.

No minimum deposit is published. Bank transfer is the only funding route the Company publishes, and neither its deposit method document nor its fee schedule states a minimum deposit or withdrawal. A deposit fee applies per transfer: 20 EUR on euro amounts up to 50,000 and 40 EUR above that.

Fidus Investments Cyprus Ltd is authorised by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) as a Cyprus Investment Firm under licence 326/17, confirmed on the CySEC register. Eligible retail clients are covered by the Investor Compensation Fund, which pays up to 20,000 EUR in total per client for eligible claims if the firm cannot return client money or instruments; it does not cover investment losses. The broker operates under EU rules, with some country restrictions.
