Licences on record
Brands often operate several companies. The one that onboards you depends on where you live, and that company's regulator decides your protection. Confirm the entity on the official register before you deposit.
| Regulator | Jurisdiction | Type | Check it |
|---|---|---|---|
| ČNB Česká národní banka (Czech National Bank) | Czechia |
EU/EEA – passportable | Regulator website |
What protection would you get?
If you are a retail client of Komerční banka's European entity, these safeguards apply by law. Which one applies to you depends on the entity you sign with.
- Investor compensation: 90% of the claim, up to the CZK equivalent of €20,000 – Garanční fond obchodníků s cennými papíry (confirm with the scheme)
- Leverage for retail clients: capped at 30:1 on major currency pairs, down to 2:1 on crypto. Details
- Negative balance protection: you cannot lose more than the money in your account.
- Margin close-out: positions are closed when equity falls to 50% of required margin.

Verify Komerční banka yourself
- Find the exact company name in the footer of the website and in the client agreement you are asked to sign.
- Search that name on the register of the regulator listed for your country (links above). Make sure the register shows the same website domain.
- Check warning lists for look-alike names: IOSCO I-SCAN covers alerts from regulators worldwide.
- Never download remote-access software or move money because someone "from the broker" phoned you. How clone-firm scams work.
