IC Markets (9pfx.com)

IC Markets (9pfx.com) Broker Overview

IC Markets (9pfx.com) is the profile of a forex and CFD operation that presented itself under the IC Markets name from the website www.9pfx.com, with China recorded as its base. It is not the Australian company that owns the IC Markets business name, and nothing connects the two. No operating legal company, no licence and no trading conditions were disclosed for the 9pfx.com operation, and the website is no longer online.

IC Markets (9pfx.com) Regulation and License

No financial regulation is confirmed for the operator behind 9pfx.com. There is no regulator, no licence number, no licence type and no licensed entity on record for it, so there is not even a claimed licence that could be matched against an authority's register.

The IC Markets name the site used is a registered business name of International Capital Markets Pty Ltd, ACN 123 289 109, an Australian private company active since 30 January 2007, as recorded on the Australian Business Register. A business name registration is a corporate record and not a financial licence, and in any case it belongs to the Australian company rather than to the 9pfx.com operation.

Is IC Markets (9pfx.com) Regulated?

No. No confirmed financial regulation exists for the operator of 9pfx.com in any jurisdiction. Because no authority and licence number were ever put forward, there was nothing a prospective client could check on a regulator's register, and no supervised firm to turn to if money went missing.

IC Markets and International Capital Markets Pty Ltd

The IC Markets brand belongs to International Capital Markets Pty Ltd, whose main business location is recorded in Sydney, New South Wales, and which has held IC Markets as a registered business name since 3 September 2016. The operation profiled here used that same name from an unrelated domain and named no legal company of its own. Anyone who dealt with www.9pfx.com was not dealing with the Australian company whose name appeared on the site.

Is IC Markets (9pfx.com) Safe?

No. The operation disclosed no legal entity, no supervision and no verifiable office, so there was no company a client could identify or pursue and no regulator with authority over it. Using an established licensed broker's name from an unrelated website is the pattern of an impersonation site rather than of a firm building its own business. The site is now offline, so any balance left with it has no published route to recovery.

IC Markets (9pfx.com) Review and Assessment

The record here is consistent with brand impersonation rather than with a broker. The operation borrowed the name of a long established licensed Australian firm, ran from www.9pfx.com, disclosed no operating company and no regulation, and has since disappeared. There is nothing a prospective client can open an account with, and anyone who encounters the IC Markets name elsewhere should confirm they are on the genuine broker's own website before sending money.
