Forex Brokers in Greece
Forex brokers in Greece are overseen by both the EU regulator, which is the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) and the Hellenic Capital Market Commission (HCMC). Therefore, forex brokers in Greece have the same restrictions as brokers in other EU countries regarding the trading leverage and negative balance protection scheme.
Besides overseeing and licensing forex brokers in Greece, HCMC is also responsible for overseeing the broader financial markets in Greece, as well as companies listed on the Athens Stock Exchange. Since there is no requirement for a forex broker to be regulated in Greece, many forex brokers from other European countries also offer their services to Greek forex traders.
