Anyone else surprised at the suggestion that Aussie brokers are actually some of the least secure in the world?
Curious to hear people's thoughts on the article below. The implications for reduced leverage and unquarantined client funds is very significant.

I don't personally have any concerns around the guys we work with being Axi, IC and Global Prime having met the CEO's of each brokerage multiple times over the years.
Should regulators reduce leverage as I expect over the next few years, it won't effect what we're doing here. Most of our traders are using leverage well below 20:1 most of the time.

There are a handful of regulated brokers that I wouldn't touch due to my own experience and stories that I've heard from being in the industry for as long as I have.
