Security & Trust
Your Security Is
Our Infrastructure.
Every system we build, every policy we set, and every decision we make is filtered through one question: does this protect our clients?
Segregated Client Funds
Your funds are held in dedicated client money accounts with top-tier banking institutions — completely separate from TFS Securities' operational accounts. We cannot use client funds for any company purpose.
- Held at Tier-1 banking institutions
- Segregated per regulatory requirement
- Regular third-party reconciliation
Bank-Grade Data Security
All communications between your device and our servers are protected by 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption. Personal and financial data is stored in encrypted, access-controlled environments.
- 256-bit SSL/TLS encryption in transit
- AES-256 encryption at rest
- Two-factor authentication available
Negative Balance Protection
In the event of extreme market volatility, your account balance cannot fall below zero. Retail clients are automatically protected — you can never lose more than you deposit.
- Automatic margin call protection
- Stop-out levels clearly communicated
- Applied to all retail accounts

Risk Disclosure
Trading in leveraged financial products (CFDs, FX, commodities, indices, and cryptocurrencies) carries a high level of risk and may not be suitable for all investors. The use of leverage can work both in your favour and against you. You may lose all of your invested capital and in some circumstances more. You should not invest money you cannot afford to lose.
Before deciding to trade, ensure you fully understand the risks involved, your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. Seek independent financial advice if necessary. Past performance of any trading strategy or instrument is not indicative of future results.
