Investment Firms Authorised in United States
Every entry we hold for United States, across 3 registers — what each firm is authorised as, when, and which authorisations have since been withdrawn.
These are different registers and they do not certify the same thing. Every entry below names the register it came from. What that register is a record of:
- U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission — Information about Registered Investment Advisers (Form ADV data) — SEC-registered investment advisers — NOT broker-dealers, NOT state-registered advisers, NOT exempt reporting advisers.
- U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission — Financial Data for Futures Commission Merchants — CFTC-registered futures commission merchants and retail foreign exchange dealers.
- Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) — MSB Registrant Search — FinCEN MSB self-registration — AML only, NOT a licence.
A permission granted under one regime says nothing about any other, and no entry here is evidence about a firm’s standing in a jurisdiction whose register we do not hold. If the firm you are checking offered you crypto, start with the guided check.
An authorisation is not an endorsement. SEC registration means a firm has filed Form ADV and is registered as an investment adviser. The SEC does not approve, recommend or vouch for any adviser, and registration is not a statement that the firm is safe or that it may hold your money. No firm on this page is scored, ranked or assessed by us, there is no green tick anywhere on this site, and lists are ordered alphabetically so that the order cannot be read as a judgement either.
An authorisation is not an endorsement. The CFTC publishes that a firm is registered as an FCM or retail foreign exchange dealer. That is a record of a registration, not a recommendation and not a statement that the firm is safe. No firm on this page is scored, ranked or assessed by us, there is no green tick anywhere on this site, and lists are ordered alphabetically so that the order cannot be read as a judgement either.
An authorisation is not an endorsement. FinCEN registration is a form a business files itself for anti-money-laundering purposes. FinCEN does not verify, license, approve or endorse registrants, and registration is not permission to offer investments, hold customer funds or trade crypto. Scam sites routinely cite it as if it were a licence. No firm on this page is scored, ranked or assessed by us, there is no green tick anywhere on this site, and lists are ordered alphabetically so that the order cannot be read as a judgement either.

43,984 further entries are held but not listed row by row on this page, because a single page of them would be too large to load beside the list above: U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission — Information about Registered Investment Advisers (Form ADV data) (17,143) · Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) — MSB Registrant Search (26,841). Use the regulator’s own search for a single name; company pages on this site that match one of these entries show it.
If the Firm You Are Checking Is Not Listed Above
That is not a finding against it. The registers we hold for United States cover only the regimes named on this page. A firm can be lawfully authorised here under a regime we do not hold, or authorised elsewhere to serve clients here.
We hold 69,058 current entries across every register on this site. Ask the firm which authority regulates it for your country, then check that authority’s own register — and treat an unwillingness to answer that question as the answer.

What Grouping by United States Means Here
This is the jurisdiction whose authority recorded the authorisation — not necessarily the only place the firm operates. A firm authorised here may serve clients elsewhere, and a firm serving clients here may be authorised elsewhere.
Being present on this page does not mean a firm may do everything. The register overview explains what the permissions are and what falls outside them.
