50.0Score
Six brokerages keep their registered office in Montenegro, and this page lists all six, ordered by overall WIKILIX score. Two of them, TFCAPITAL and Limit Prime Securities, hold a licence from Montenegro's own Capital Market Commission. The other four do not, and that gap is the first thing a Montenegrin address fails to tell you.
A registered office in Podgorica is a company fact, not a safety rating. It records where a firm is incorporated and nothing about who may open an account there. TFCAPITAL carries both a Montenegrin seat and a Montenegrin licence, alongside a United States FINRA registration. Limit Prime Securities holds the Montenegrin licence too. The remaining four lean on a foreign permission or on nothing at all.
What a Montenegrin address does and does not cover
Three of the six carry a clean regulation status on record and three are marked as having no regulation. NOZAX is recorded as regulated, but on a foreign FSC licence rather than a Montenegrin one. MFX Prime DOO is the odd case: it holds an Australian ASIC licence, a genuine tier-1 authority, yet still carries a no-regulation status in our records. Agena Markets and Dana Brokerage Co. list no regulator at all.

Who you will not find here
Most people trading from Montenegro do not use a Montenegrin firm. The large international brokers they tend to open accounts with are seated in the United Kingdom, Cyprus, Australia or the offshore islands, and they show up on the country pages for those places rather than this one. This page answers a narrower question: which brokerages are legally based in Montenegro. If you arrived expecting a shortlist of firms that accept Montenegrin residents, start with the questions at the foot of the page, because domicile and client acceptance are two different tests.
The Capital Market Commission and what its licence buys
Montenegro's Capital Market Commission sits at tier three in the WIKILIX regulator ranking, an onshore body that oversees the domestic capital market. A licence from it is a real permission granted inside Montenegro, which is more than four of these six firms can show. It is not the same cover a client of a UK or Australian regulator receives, and it does not follow you abroad: a Montenegrin licence governs business done under Montenegrin rules and stops there.
Age cuts a similar way. The oldest name here, Dana Brokerage Co., dates to 2005, yet records a score of zero and lists no trading platform, so its years count for little. TFCAPITAL and MFX both opened in 2022. Scores across the list run from 0 to 50 with a midpoint near 41, so even the highest-rated firm sits mid-table against the wider field, and leverage stretches from a nominal 1:1 up to 1:1000.
Before you open an account with a Montenegro-registered broker
- Confirm the exact legal entity on your client agreement. A Podgorica registration and the company that actually holds your money are not always one and the same.
- Check whether the licence is Montenegrin or foreign. Only TFCAPITAL and Limit Prime Securities hold the Capital Market Commission licence; the rest lean on a foreign permission or none.
- Weigh the leverage against your own limits. MFX advertises up to 1:1000, several times what a tier-1 regulator permits a retail client.
- Confirm any licence number on the Capital Market Commission's own register before funding an account, rather than trusting a badge shown on a website.
Everything here reflects the licences and status labels WIKILIX holds on record as of today. Check any of it against the regulator's own register before you commit money.

This page rebuilds itself whenever a broker's country or licence record changes, so a firm that gains a Montenegrin licence, moves its registration or drops out of our records will appear or disappear here without anyone rewriting the text. The six names above are what stands on record today.
Montenegro is a small seat for this industry, and the more useful comparisons are usually regional. The pages for Bulgaria, Turkey and Cyprus cover larger populations of the same kind, where a local licence is far more common. The Malta and Ireland pages show what a European Union licence adds that a Montenegrin one does not.
Whichever you read next, treat the licence rather than the address as the thing that matters. A registered office is cheap to establish and tells you almost nothing about the protection behind a deposit. The Capital Market Commission's register is where you confirm a Montenegrin licence, and each foreign authority keeps its own. These records are rechecked as licences change, but the register itself is always more current than any list.
