Ultima Markets

Ultima Markets Overview

Ultima Markets is a multi-asset CFD broker operating globally under Ultima Markets Ltd, authorised by the Financial Services Commission (FSC) of Mauritius as a Full-Service Investment Dealer (excluding underwriting), licence GB 23201593. The registered office is 2nd Floor, The Catalyst, 40 Silicon Avenue, Ebene Cybercity, 72201, Mauritius. This regulatory framework underpins client-money rules and disclosures around execution-only services and segregated accounts.

The broker offers trading in Forex, commodities, indices and US shares through established platforms MetaTrader 4 (MT4) and MetaTrader 5 (MT5), plus a webtrader and a proprietary mobile app. MT4/MT5 access is promoted with fast execution and low spreads, while the mobile app provides real-time pricing, order placement and multi-asset support for on-the-go trading.

Account selection includes Standard, ECN and Pro ECN, alongside Standard Cent and ECN Cent options for smaller-denomination trading. All live accounts use market execution and advertise maximum leverage up to 1:2000 (jurisdiction and product dependent). Cent accounts are positioned for flexible risk management with reduced position sizes, while ECN tiers feature lower minimum spreads with a commission model; Standard accounts are spread-only.

Ultima Markets highlights segregation of client funds in dedicated accounts and states in risk disclosures that client money is held in segregated bank accounts under the regulator’s client-money rules. A help-center note adds operational detail on custody arrangements, reflecting the firm’s emphasis on separating client assets from company funds. Public pages also promote 24/7 support via email and online channels.

Product scope spans 250+ CFDs, with pages inviting traders to "explore 250+ markets" across major FX pairs through to equities indices and U.S. shares, aligning platform access with a broad symbol list. Education content—covering topics from leverage use to strategy primers—supports newer traders while reinforcing risk awareness around high-leverage products.

Corporate communications also note a separate announcement regarding an FCA licence for a UK entity; however, the international website repeatedly clarifies that it is owned by international entities, not the UK entity, and that FCA protections do not apply when accessing or opening accounts via the global site. This distinction is made prominently on the platform and announcement pages and should be considered by users evaluating regulatory protections by jurisdiction.

Overall, Ultima Markets combines FSC-regulated operations, MT4/MT5 technology, five live account types (including Cent variants), market execution, high maximum leverage (up to 1:2000), and 24/7 support. Its global site sets clear expectations on client-fund segregation and the scope of applicable protections, while providing platform choice and multi-asset coverage for retail traders seeking flexible account configurations.
