ASIC expands IPO publicity before prospectus lodgement
Securities offers, including IPOs, can be publicised earlier, but ads must name the issuer, point investors to the prospectus and stay current.
Our approach
Ranking built on evidence, not ad spend.
Four pillars decide every score, and we check each one against primary sources.
Regulation-first scoring
Every broker is weighted first by licensing tier. Top-tier regulators score higher than offshore-only setups.
Real cost comparison
We pull live spreads, commissions and swap fees so the price you see is the price you actually pay.
Platform depth checks
MetaTrader, cTrader and proprietary platforms are tested for execution speed, charting and mobile parity.
Verified trader reviews
Every review is tied to a checked trading account, so anonymous ratings never make the list.
