Not proven to be a scam, and we found no evidence of fraud. We still rate it high risk. VTGM trades publicly as ValkTrade and does hold one genuine, active licence. What concerns us is that the busin…

Broker Summary
Summary of the broker
VTGM Broker Overview
VTGM is a foreign exchange and CFD brand associated with the Australian private company VALK TRADE (AUS) PTY LTD, ACN 650 543 632, and with the address 'Australia Square Tower Building' Suite 1 Level 48, 264-278 George Street, Sydney NSW 2000. No confirmed financial regulation was established for the brand, and the company's Australian business registration has since been cancelled. The site VTGM publishes as its own, https://vt-gm.com, no longer resolves, so its account terms, platforms, spreads and funding conditions cannot be documented.
VTGM Regulation and License
No licence number, authority or licensed entity could be established for VTGM in any jurisdiction. VTGM regulation therefore falls into the category of no confirmed regulation: not a licence found to be expired or restricted, but no financial authorisation identified at all. Because there is no licence, there is no jurisdiction whose conduct rules, client-money segregation requirements or compensation scheme applies to money held under the brand.
Is VTGM Regulated?
No. VTGM is not confirmed to hold financial regulation anywhere. The only official record found for the operation is a corporate registration in Australia, which is company law rather than financial supervision and confers no permission to hold client deposits or to deal in foreign exchange.
VALK TRADE (AUS) PTY LTD
The operating company is separate from the VTGM trading name. It was registered as VALK TRADE PTY LTD on 27 May 2021 and renamed VALK TRADE (AUS) PTY LTD on 1 January 2022, with a main business location of NSW 2000. Its ABN 16 650 543 632 was cancelled from 23 April 2025, which is publicly recorded on the Australian Business Register. A brand still marketed behind a company whose business registration has been cancelled leaves a client without an active Australian entity to deal with.
Is VTGM Safe?
The available evidence does not support treating VTGM as safe. Three facts drive that: no financial licence was identified, the operating company's Australian registration is cancelled, and the website the brand names as its own is no longer reachable. Together these mean there is neither a regulator to complain to nor an active registered company to pursue.
VTGM Pros and Cons
The single point in the brand's favour is that a named Australian company and a company number are on public record, so the operation is not entirely anonymous. Against it: no confirmed regulation, a cancelled company registration, a defunct primary website, and no verifiable account terms, costs, platforms or withdrawal conditions.
VTGM Review and Assessment
A VTGM review can only be written around an absence. The brand is traceable to a real Australian company, but that company's registration has been cancelled, no financial authorisation was found under either name, and the trading proposition itself cannot be examined because the published website is gone. Anyone still holding a balance under the brand should treat recovering it as the priority rather than trading further, and no new deposit should be made without an in-force licence from a regulator that supervises retail forex.
