What the tiers mean
Tier 1 covers major regulators with strict capital, segregation and conduct rules (for example FCA, ASIC, CFTC/NFA, BaFin, FINMA). Tier 2 covers established regulators with solid frameworks (for example CySEC, FSCA, DFSA). Tier 3 covers offshore or registration-only regimes with lighter oversight. The tiering is our editorial classification; it is not a statement by any regulator.
