OFX: institutional due diligence FAQ
Key supervisory, licensing, and counterparty verification questions generated from the dataset.
What is OFX's regulatory licence status and supervisory authorisation?
In our imported dataset, OFX (legal entity reference: OzForex Limited) holds 1 recorded licence entry, of which 1 carries a "regulated" status and 1 are marked regulated or registered: ASIC (Australian Securities and Investments Commission) — licence 226484, status: regulated. Institutional due diligence requires verifying that the exact legal entity on your counterparty agreement matches the licensed entity name and registration number on the official ASIC public register.
Which of OFX's jurisdictions and licences fall within this site's regulatory coverage?
OFX is registered at Level 19, 60 Margaret Street, SYDNEY NSW 2000 and tracked under our futures, options and derivatives providers scope based on its institutional service profile (Forex, exchange rates, contracts) rather than a domestic focus licence. Its 1 recorded licence (ASIC) should be evaluated for cross-border passporting and local solicitation rules.
What is OFX's institutional risk classification, enforcement exposure, and score profile?
OFX carries a "risk level not supplied" classification in the source dataset, alongside composite 5-dimension ratings out of 10 (overall: 5.0, risk & licensing: 5.0, brand: 5.0, market influence: 5.0, user reputation: 0.0). The record flags 0 regulatory warning or complaint counts. Because these figures reflect imported source fields rather than primary audit findings, compliance teams should review primary enforcement bulletins directly.
What operational due diligence steps apply to OFX's platforms, entity structure, and complaints?
Before allocating capital or executing trades with OFX (listed execution software: OFX Business AU), institutional and retail allocators should: (1) confirm the domain (not supplied in source) against regulator-approved domains to guard against clone firms; (2) verify whether any of the 0 recorded warning/complaint entries or 0 user comments involve withdrawal restrictions or scope violations; and (3) confirm the dispute-resolution ombudsman tied to ASIC.
