Broker Summary
Summary of the broker
Universal Futures is a forex and futures trading brand operated from the domain universal-futures.com, presenting itself as an Indonesian firm with an office address at APL Tower, Jl. Letjen S. Parman Kav. 28, Grogol Petamburan, West Jakarta.
Regulation. WIKILIX could not confirm that this operator holds any forex or futures licence. No supervisory authority record was available to us for this domain during our review, and the operator's own website was offline throughout, so nothing it may claim about supervision could be read or tested. On the evidence we have, the brand should be treated as unregulated.
Identity. The brand name is shared with a separately established Indonesian futures brokerage that operates under a different domain. A name in common is not a connection, and readers should not assume that any licence associated with that other firm applies to this domain. Our own on-the-ground check of the Jakarta address published for this operator did not find a working office there.
Website and offering. Throughout our review the site returned an origin server failure on the root and on every language path we tried, so no account types, spreads, leverage, funding channels, platform list or country policy could be verified from the operator itself. We publish no commercial terms for this broker rather than repeat figures we could not source.
Contact. The operator publishes a Jakarta telephone number, +62 21 2918 1729, and the email address [email protected].
Who it suits. Nobody, on current evidence. An unconfirmed licence, an unreachable website and an unverified office are three independent reasons a retail trader has no way to recover deposited funds. Traders in Indonesia who want a domestically supervised futures broker should verify the specific company and licence number directly with the relevant Indonesian authority before depositing anything, and should not rely on brand names alone.
