Financeadvisoryag.com Examination

The pages of the Finance Advisory AG website look quite appealing. The developers managed to choose a high-quality, well-optimized template for loading, used appropriate color schemes, and fitting illustrations.

However, the first good impression is spoiled by the content on the site. Indeed, the content of the pages is virtually useless in terms of information and filled with fake claims, making it hard to even give a satisfactory evaluation. See for yourself:

  • The maximum leverage figures differ between the account table and the FAQ section. This suggests that the company’s staff is poorly informed about even the most critical details of the services for traders.
  • The homepage claims there are 1,495 reviews of the company on Trustpilot with an average rating of over 4.5 out of 5. However, in reality, there isn’t a single comment about the broker on this platform. This is no mistake but rather a deliberate publication of false information to mislead site visitors.
  • The firm’s most important document, the Terms & Conditions, is hard to describe. Its 10 points contain no provisions outlining the interaction between users and the broker. Calling this document a “Terms & Conditions” is an overstatement.
  • Across practically every page, there’s almost no specific information about the company’s activities or services. Instead, there are many unsupported claims about “the best conditions/platform/security,” etc. It feels more like browsing a promotional brochure than an informational broker website.

In short, you won’t find any resemblance to real broker websites here. Every line shows the intent to quickly attract as much client money as possible and disappear just as fast. It’s no surprise since Finance Advisory AG was created with exactly this purpose in mind.

Company Contacts

The contact page of Finance Advisory AG looks just like those of numerous other scam projects. On it, you can find:

  • A feedback form.
  • An office address in Zurich, Switzerland.
  • A phone number with a Swiss country code.
  • A couple of email addresses.

Nothing new here, and the typical scam-related problems are still present. For example:

  • The page lists an office address in Zurich, but the phone number is from Geneva. It’s hard to imagine such discrepancies in office buildings in precise Switzerland.
  • There is no online chat on the company’s website. Clearly, the owners aren’t interested in promptly addressing visitors’ questions. Perhaps the reason is different — maybe the firm simply doesn’t have any staff to work with clients in real-time.
  • Finance Advisory AG does not link to any social media pages. Either the company hasn’t had time to create groups and channels, doesn’t need to attract this audience (hard to believe), or simply lacks the specialists and resources to maintain activity on these platforms.

We’ve seen similar pages from scammers before, and it’s hard to convince us that a broker using the same tactics is operating honestly.

Key Conditions

As we mentioned, Finance Advisory AG barely publishes any critical information for traders. This also applies to the trading conditions. However, the broker does have an account type table.

It features four plans:

  • Intro with a minimum deposit of £100, leverage up to 1:10, and “standard” spreads and swaps.
  • Beginner with a minimum deposit of £5,000, leverage up to 1:20, and “standard” spreads and swaps.
  • Silver with a minimum deposit of £25,000, leverage up to 1:50, and “medium” spreads and swaps.
  • Gold with a minimum deposit of £75,000, leverage up to 1:100, and “medium” spreads and swaps.

Finance Advisory AG - account types

Moreover, the table contains three more tariffs with insane deposits from 150 thousand to a million euros and “low spreads”. It is unnecessary to dwell on the analysis of each of these proposals divorced from reality.

After reviewing this table and other site materials, many questions arise:

  • Why is the minimum deposit for the Intro and Beginner accounts 50 times different when the only difference between them is the doubling of leverage for the second account?
  • What leverage is being used anyway? The table lists up to 1:100, the FAQ section mentions up to 1:100, and the Products section lists 1:20.
  • How should “Standard” or “Medium” spreads be understood if, according to the broker, they start at 0? And what are the corresponding swap rates?
  • Where does the broker get the funds to pay interest on the Gold and higher-level accounts if it doesn’t have access to client funds? What is the source of this income?
  • How does the Gold account’s 50% bonus comply with European regulators’ requirements, which prohibit such methods of attracting and rewarding clients?

Try asking their support these questions. We didn’t get any answers. Perhaps it’s because the broker operates honestly and transparently, and our doubts are just getting in the way.

Exposing Finance Advisory AG

To convince traders that Finance Advisory AG is a scam, stronger arguments than those already listed might be needed. We have them, as they came up during our analysis of the company’s official details.

Finance Advisory AG - in Swiss registry

A search in the Swiss business registry revealed the following about the company:

  • A company with this name is indeed registered in Switzerland.
  • It has been operating since 2008 and has changed its name four times during this period.
  • It provides fiduciary (trust management) services.

Brokerage or dealer services in financial markets are not listed among its activities. We also checked for any brokerage licenses, and it turns out that Finance Advisory AG is not authorized by the local Swiss regulator FINMA, nor does it hold licenses from any European regulators. No wonder the broker doesn’t even mention licensing or regulation on its website.

What does this mean? Once again, scammers are trying to mislead potential clients. The broker operates solely online without official registration, using the name of an existing Swiss firm. However, this firm is not licensed to provide brokerage services, making all the activities of this platform illegal.

Another piece of evidence supporting our conclusions is the age of the fake company. According to the whois service, the domain financeadvisoryag.com was registered in September 2024.

Domain

This means the fake broker has existed for just over a month. There’s no way it has been operating since 2008 like the real company. Of course, the claims on the homepage about having a million clients are also fake.

Other red flags include:

  • Inability to register independently (a Registration Code is required).
  • No company payment details on the website.
  • No financial statements published.
  • False claims about storing client funds in segregated bank accounts (a company without registration cannot open corporate bank accounts).

Still unsure if this project is fraudulent? Then check out what others are saying about the broker online.

What Reviews Do Users Leave?

We thought it would be impossible for Finance Advisory AG to gather a significant number of reviews in just one month. However, the fake broker we’re discussing today has managed it.

Unfortunately for them, it’s certainly not the 1,500 positive comments on Trustpilot. In fact, nobody has left a single review for this platform on Trustpilot.

We’re talking about reviews from trading and investing websites, where experts have already taken a look at Finance Advisory AG. Their assessments are overwhelmingly negative. Most reviewers highlighted the same flaws that we did. The platform’s ratings consistently fall between 1 and 2 out of 5, and the words most frequently associated with it are “scam” and “fraud.”

Of course, there are a few articles that praise the broker as reliable, modern, and a leader in its field. Upon closer inspection, these articles don’t even mention Finance Advisory AG. It’s clear that these were paid for by the company, and the authors didn’t bother to ensure their content was accurate.

Conclusions

In conclusion, working with Finance Advisory AG will inevitably result in the loss of all funds sent to its accounts. It’s hard to trust a company that is not officially registered, provides services without a license, and deliberately misleads clients. Our findings are supported by numerous online reviews, all of which provide clear evidence that this trading platform is a complete scam.

Pros/Cons

  • Excellent website design.
  • Entry-level deposit of only £100, affordable for nearly any trader.
  • The company has no official registration and unlawfully uses the name of an existing Swiss firm.
  • The broker operates without a license, violating European laws.
  • Much of the information on the website is false.
  • The platform has only been in existence for just over a month.
  • Key details about trading and non-trading operations are hidden from users.

FAQ

The broker promises to store funds in segregated accounts. Why do you doubt this?

To use segregated accounts, the company would need to open them with a bank. However, since Finance Advisory AG is not officially registered, it cannot open corporate bank accounts. So how can the broker store client funds in accounts that don’t exist?

What’s your take on the 1:100 leverage?

From our perspective, this leverage is optimal for traders. It offers decent returns while keeping risks manageable for experienced traders. However, this does not apply to trading with Finance Advisory AG. This broker operates illegally, without registration or licenses, and doesn’t engage in real trading. Sending funds to their accounts, even if the leverage were set to 1:1, is an extreme risk.

Which deposit method should I choose?

We always recommend using methods that provide full transparency about the recipient, such as credit/debit cards or bank transfers. If the recipient doesn’t match the name of the company where you're depositing, cancel the transaction. Avoid using cryptocurrencies, as you cannot see who is receiving the funds, and blockchain transactions cannot be reversed.

    I desperately need advice on how to fight back against these scammers at Finance Advisory AG. When they spoke to me on the phone, they promised that my investments would be completely safe. After opening and funding an account, they even asked me to send money for insurance, which I did. I traded on the platform for two weeks, and then the company’s employees just stopped responding, and my account was blocked. I can’t even log in anymore. What is this nonsense? Can someone help me find my insurance and tell me how to submit a withdrawal request if none of the operations are available to me?

  2. HASSAN

    Do not invest your money in Finance Advisory AG! They continuously ask you to deposit more money to withdraw what’s already in your account. They use a third-party wallet app called “1Bitcoin” for deposits. I tried withdrawing, and they would not give me the option to withdraw parts of my money, they told me I needed to withdraw all of it. Once I submitted the withdrawal request, they told me I had to authenticate it by buying and selling from AUD/CAD, but then I “failed” the verification. I was told I had two options: Deposit 5000 EUROS immediately to fix my mistake, or my account would be blocked for a year. Now I am down 20K and with no hopes of getting my money back.

    Do not trust big professional scammers. They only ask for deposits you will never be able to withdraw since they would throw a rock in your way as soon as they hear “withdraw.” They use different strategies to make you pay more to be able to withdraw, and that day will never come. They use Christmas rally, earning season, and a bunch of other excuses to make you tempted to make more deposits. You will never, ever withdraw. Stay away and spread the word.
