Investment Platform Check: Has It Been Reviewed?

You can search for an investment platform, a site posing as a brokerage firm or an investment group by typing its name among the reviews published by Savun Law & Consultancy. The search runs on the titles of the reviews, the known names of the operation and its domain names.

5.385 inceleme içinde aranır. Yazdığınız ad sunucuya gönderilmez; arama bu sayfada, cihazınızda yapılır.

What does the result mean?

  • Review found: We have a published review that matches the name or domain you typed. The details are in the review itself.
  • "A real institution's name is being used without permission" label: The review is not about the real institution named; it describes operations that use that institution's name or logo without permission.
  • No record found: This only shows that we have no published review about it. It does not mean that the platform is authorised or trustworthy.

Where can you see whether an institution is authorised?

In Türkiye, capital markets activities are subject to the permission of the Capital Markets Board (SPK). The list of authorised brokerage firms and banks is publicly available on the Board's website; the Board announces its decisions on websites where it has detected unauthorised activity in its weekly bulletins. For the list: SPK authorised brokerage firms.

What are the reviews based on?

The reviews are based on public notices, regulator records and information published by the operation itself. The search index is refreshed once a day as new reviews are added. Aggregate figures on the reviews appear on the page investment fraud statistics in Türkiye.

Frequently asked questions

The platform I searched for did not appear. Does that mean it is trustworthy?

No. Not finding a record only shows that we have no review published under that name. The same operation may be running under a different name or domain; whether an institution is authorised can be seen from the public lists of the Capital Markets Board.

Is the name I type saved anywhere?

No. The search index is downloaded to your browser and the search runs on your device; the name you type is not sent to the server.

Can the same platform appear under different names?

Yes. About a quarter of the operations we review run under more than one name, and some under more than one domain. For this reason, searching the platform's name, abbreviation and web address separately may give more results.

Why does a well-known institution's name appear in the results?

Some operations use the name and logo of well-known brokerage firms, banks or companies without permission. These reviews are shown with the "A real institution's name is being used without permission" label and are not about the real institution named.
