What BrokersView does

BrokersView is a global forex broker research and regulatory inquiry platform operated by FastBull Ltd, a privately held Hong Kong-incorporated company with approximately 25 employees. It serves retail forex traders, Introducing Brokers (IBs), and forex brokerage firms across markets in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America through a 10+ language web and mobile platform. Core products include an advanced broker search across 2,000+ brokers, a side-by-side comparison tool, live spread comparison, BV Assessment (live trading performance ranking across speed, stability, liquidity, slippage, spreads, and swap rates), an IB directory, and a scam detection and complaint submission system. The platform aggregates regulatory data from 20+ authorities (FCA, ASIC, CySEC, MAS, NFA, FINMA, FSCA, SFC, Japan FSA, and others) and publishes a weekly blacklist of unauthorized brokers.

The underlying technology combines a structured broker-regulator database with a live trading assessment engine that measures broker execution from Singapore and Frankfurt locations. BrokersView is part of the broader FastBull ecosystem, sharing infrastructure with the FastBull Trading Platform (real-time charts, copy trading, screeners, economic calendar, trading contests) and a separate white-label brokerage offering at solution.fastbull.com. Community features — in-platform chatrooms, expert Q&A, signal sharing, copy trading, user-submitted complaints, and popularity/satisfaction rankings — layer social proof on top of the dataset.

Monetisation is a hybrid B2C/B2B model. The trader-facing research experience is free, while revenue is generated from paid broker listings and company shop subscriptions, advertising, white-label platform licensing, broker and data API services, and event sponsorship from annual broker awards and exhibitions in Vietnam, Thailand, Singapore, and Dubai. Distribution combines self-serve PLG (web, iOS, Android) with community-led engagement (Telegram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Instagram) and event-driven marketing across priority regions.
