Broker Regulation & Safety of Funds

AussieTrust is not regulated by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, or by any other regulating agency. That’s not to say it isn’t still a good broker, but many traders do like to see regulation of an online broker.

On the AussieTrust website the broker states that its core values are transparency and trust. In order to meet those values, the broker has established a high degree of safety for client funds. Similar to the regulatory requirements, all client funds are held in segregated accounts to keep them separate from the broker’s own operating funds.

AussieTrust also uses Secure Socket Layer technology to encrypt all transfers and transactions made online. The entire process is automatic and applies to every client and every transaction.

Account types

With AussieTrust clients will have the ability to sign-up for three different account levels – Silver, Gold, and Platinum. These tiers will meet each client’s needs and are designed to be applicable to beginners up to experienced trading professionals. Each level has its own features that will give traders the opportunity to maximize their own skills and experiences.

Below is a more detailed description of each account level:

Silver Tier – To get access to a silver tier account a minimum deposit of €250 is required. Traders will get access to over 200 assets and can take advantage of leverage up to 100:1.

Gold Tier – Customers who want access to the gold tier are required to make a minimum deposit of €10,000. In addition to the same benefits from the silver tier these accounts are also provided with a dedicated senior account manager, increased leverage of 200:1, and access to risk management planning tools. Plus, the traders get access to bonus deposit funds, Special Venture promotions, improved spreads, trade room analysis, and a monthly webinar.

Platinum Tier – The platinum tier increases the required minimum deposit to 50,000, but it also increases the available leverage to 300:1. Platinum level clients can also participate in weekly webinars and private analyst sessions. In addition to all this the spreads are improved even further for platinum traders, and they have access to financial planning tools.

In addition to these tiers that are available to anyone who deposits, there is also a VIP account tier, which is by invitation only. If invited to the VIP tier a trader will get access to leverage of 400:1, private market analyst sessions, complete access to webinars, access to lucrative VIP events, and trade room analysis.

It should be noted that the leverage amounts are specifically mentioned on the AussieTrust website, however specific spreads are not mentioned anywhere. The site only makes mention of “Gold spreads”, “Platinum spreads” and “VIP Spreads”.

Trading Platform

The trading platform used by AussieTrust is a web-based platform only. It features an intuitive interface and low-latency connections. And because it is web-based there is no need to download any software or worry about updating software. Traders can access their account and trade from any internet connected device with a web browser.

The trading platform lists the more than 200 different assets that can be traded through this broker, along with the current bid and ask prices. According to the AussieTrust website one of the benefits of trading forex instruments through them is access to the same spreads that top-tier investment banks receive. According to the broker these competitive spreads are available regardless of market volatility, giving traders the most reliable pricing.
