Finding

A genuine Japanese Financial Instruments Business Operator registration that belongs to the real Schroder Investment Management (Japan) Limited (schroders.com). The clone copied the number; it is not the licensee. Client protection: Strong for the genuine holder; none for clients of this clone, which is not the licensee..

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about this licence

Answered from this register entry and the authority’s own record.

Most Popular Questions

Judge the address, not the name. A familiar brand in a domain proves nothing, because the name can be put on any address by anyone, and a suffix such as a country code appended to a known brand is a common way to make an unrelated site look like a local arm of it. Confirm the web address against the company's own published contact details and check the operating company and licence number on the official register of the regulator named, not on a link the site or an approach supplied.

Stop sending further funds first, including anything presented as a fee, tax or release charge needed to free a withdrawal, because that request is the usual follow on. Gather your payment records, statements and correspondence while you still hold copies. Then report the payments to your bank or card issuer and to the financial regulator and police where you live, and take the recovery question to them rather than to anyone who approaches you offering to get the money back.

You cannot. No telephone number, email address, live chat or postal address for this operation could be established, and both of its web addresses are offline. If someone is offering you a contact route under this name, treat the route itself as the thing to verify.

Unknown. No terms, restricted countries page, signup country list or risk disclaimer for this operation could be read, so neither the markets it accepted nor the ones it refused can be stated. We have recorded no country policy for it rather than imply it restricted nobody.

There is no published route. No deposit or withdrawal method, fee, processing time or limit was set out for this operation, and both of its addresses are now offline. Anyone still holding a balance has no site through which to request it.

None of it was published. No spread, commission, swap or maximum leverage figure could be established for this operation, and no execution model was stated. There is nothing here a prospective client could have compared against another broker.

None could be established. No MetaTrader 4, MetaTrader 5, cTrader or proprietary platform was named for this operation, and no download link or server name exists for it. That is unusual even for a very small broker.

It was never published anywhere we could establish. No account tier, minimum deposit or account currency was set out for this operation. A trading service that does not publish what it costs to open an account before you deposit is not one you can price.

No. Neither schroders-jp.co nor the second address schroders.click resolves at all, so no page of either can be opened. The most recent point at which the site could be seen in operation was in 2024.

It is not disclosed. No operating company, no registration number and no named officer could be established for the site from any material available for it. That means there is no legal person a client could identify, contract with or pursue.

No connection between the two could be established. Schroders plc is a separate British company on the Companies House register under number 03909886, incorporated on 14 January 2000 and registered at 1 London Wall Place, London EC2Y 5AU. The operation at schroders-jp.co is described as having started in Japan in 2023 and matches no company on that register.

Our assessment is that it is very likely one. It traded under the name of an established and entirely separate British company while running on an unrelated address, held no licence, disclosed no operating company and has since gone offline. We stop short of calling it confirmed only because no individual loss has been documented to us and the site can no longer be read.

No. No financial licence of any kind could be established for this operation, and it named no regulator and no licence number as its own. That means no authority supervised it, no client money rules applied to it, and no compensation scheme stood behind it.
