JFX operates in your country (United States) — but holds no local license. You’d likely be onboarded under an offshore entity, which means weaker fund protection. Confirm which entity before depositing.

Review analysis AI

JFX is a low-risk regulated broker in Japan with a strong FSA license. However, the absence of independent public information and user reviews means traders should carefully verify current conditions directly with the broker. The low scam risk score offers some reassurance, but caution is warranted until more third-party data emerges.

Best for
  • Traders seeking a regulated Japanese broker under FSA oversight
  • Traders comfortable with limited independent online presence
Not for
  • Traders who require extensive independent user reviews
  • Traders looking for a globally established brand with large marketing footprint

About JFX

Overview

JFX is a retail forex broker based in Japan, operating under the corporate name Across FX Co., Ltd. The company was founded in 2018, though its corporate history dates back to 2005 when it was first established as a financial futures trader. It is registered at an address in Chuo-ku, Tokyo.

Due to limited publicly available information independent of the broker's own channels, this profile relies heavily on regulatory records and aggregated industry data. The broker's official domain is jfx.co.jp.

Regulation and Licensing

JFX holds a Market Making License (MM) from the Financial Services Agency (FSA) of Japan, marking it as a regulated entity in one of the world's most stringent regulatory environments. The FSA license is a sign of compliance with high capital, reporting, and client protection standards.

The company is also a member of the Financial Futures Association of Japan, as referenced in its corporate description. This dual oversight adds an additional layer of regulatory scrutiny. The FXCanary Scam Risk Score of 23/100 indicates a low risk profile, consistent with the presence of strong regulation.

Company Background

Across FX Co., Ltd., the parent company of JFX, was established in 2005 and began offering forex services under the name “Zero FX” in August 2007. It registered as a financial instruments business operator in September 2007. The company moved its headquarters from Minato-ku, Shiba to its current location in Chuo-ku.

The broker's registration date in our records is December 20, 2018, which likely corresponds to the launch of the JFX brand or platform. The long operational history of its parent company suggests experience in the Japanese forex market.

Account Types and Platforms

Specific details about JFX's account types, trading platforms, and instruments are not available from independent public sources at this time. Based on regulatory records, the broker is licensed to offer forex trading and likely provides standard retail accounts with leverage as permitted by Japanese regulations.

Traders seeking further information should consult the broker's official website at jfx.co.jp for the most current offerings. Given the FSA oversight, any platform and account types offered must comply with local regulatory requirements.

Risk and Suitability

JFX's regulated status in Japan means it must adhere to strict client money segregation, negative balance protection, and leverage limits set by the FSA. This provides a strong safety net for retail traders. However, the lack of independent user reviews and limited web presence may make it harder for traders to gauge execution quality and customer service.

The broker appears best suited for traders who prioritize regulation and are comfortable trading with a smaller, less globally recognized brand. It may not be ideal for those seeking a large international broker with widespread trader feedback.
