    Your registration date is 2001.
    (sorry if i got, wrong impression and you really don't know)

    https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/amp-global-europe-launched-ask-us-anything.326840/
    (revenue $37m ?)

    What makes me wonder, is it a franchise business of :
    https://www.amp.com.au/
    (revenue $4B)

    or a copy-cat.

    Well, more easy to say than to apply, lots of different interests on both sides, although, if by any chance, Robinhood would prevail in US side, despite the hardship, that would be a worthwhile strategic move.

    No it is the EU branch of its' American parent -scroll to the bottom.

    S0 - do you think AMP is a bucket shop as implied by your post relating to Cyprus or are you blindly labelling any broker registered in Cyprus as 'Bucket shop'
    I think AMP USA and its' Cyprus registered EU branch is legit -I was asking your opinion of same !

    Yes Tommy -we can trade via a US branch of many US brokers or use a spread bet firm such as IG UK ( who are in USA now) or AMP which is in Europe and parent company is in Chicago, or Interactive Brokers ( another USA firm with a branch in London).

    I think, the most wise decision, would be to end the conversation at this point,

    yet,

    How should i call it ?

    Bridge Waters ?

    Given the fact, that they copied the name and logo from amp.com.au (which has the revenue of $4.5 B), it would be no surprise, that their the next child-business would be named :

    Bright Waters

    Ofcourse , i could & i should have used most of them instead of all of them, but, life is to short for drama, unless thou is intentionally seeking for it, & in such case, the only outcome between us will be ignore.

    Assuming we are talking other than CFTC stuff its cost. That includes regulation, compliance, AML and scale of staffing.
