Overview
IUX is a privately held online brokerage associated with the legal name IUX Markets. The business was established in 2016 as IUX Markets Limited and was rebranded as IUX in 2024. Its principal base is in Mauritius, while its operating structure includes regulated entities serving selected international markets. The brokerage provides leveraged trading products rather than direct ownership of most underlying assets, with its offering centered on foreign exchange and contracts for difference (CFDs). The product range described for IUX includes approximately 60 currency pairs and CFDs referencing commodities, equities, and cryptocurrencies. Customers can access the service through a proprietary web-based and mobile trading application, as well as MetaTrader 5, a widely used third-party trading platform. The company has described a distributed technology infrastructure using fiber-optic connectivity between London, New York, and Singapore to support order and service delivery with low latency. As with other leveraged CFD and forex brokers, access, product availability, leverage, and customer eligibility vary by jurisdiction. IUX operates through entities subject to financial regulation in several jurisdictions. IUX Markets Ltd is associated with authorization from the Financial Services Commission of Mauritius. The group also operates IUX Markets AU Pty Ltd, which is associated with regulation by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, and IUX Markets ZA (Pty) Ltd, which received authorization from South Africa's Financial Sector Conduct Authority in 2024. The business does not generally serve residents of the United States, the United Kingdom, European Union member states, or Australia through its broader international offering; local regulatory arrangements and restrictions determine which entity and products may be available in a particular market. In November 2024, IUX joined the Financial Commission, an independent organization involved in dispute resolution for the foreign-exchange industry. The membership was presented as providing an additional channel for eligible trading-related complaints and monetary protection associated with accepted claim resolutions. It supplements, rather than replaces, the statutory protections and complaint procedures applicable under the relevant national regulator. The company has also pursued brand visibility outside its core trading-service activities. In March 2024, it became a sponsoring partner of English Premier League football club Fulham. In 2025, it participated in educational-support and charitable activities linked to SOS Children's Villages Nigeria, including assistance for students at Ikija Community School in Ogun State and a book drive for schools in Johannesburg. These initiatives positioned IUX as an internationally oriented financial-services brand while extending its marketing and community activity beyond platform and product promotion. Publicly available reference material identifies IUX as serving hundreds of thousands of active trading accounts across multiple countries, but the precise account figure and geographic composition may change over time. The company remains an active, privately held brokerage brand. Its principal competitive proposition is international access to multi-asset leveraged trading, supported by multiple trading interfaces, jurisdiction-specific regulatory entities, and a global sponsorship and marketing profile.
History
IUX was established in 2016 under the name IUX Markets Limited as an online brokerage serving international clients. Its business model has focused on foreign-exchange trading and contracts for difference, allowing customers to take positions on currencies and selected financial instruments without necessarily acquiring the underlying assets. The brokerage's stated product coverage expanded beyond forex to include commodity, equity, and cryptocurrency CFDs. The company's service architecture combines its own web and mobile trading applications with MetaTrader 5. This gives customers access to a proprietary interface while also supporting a platform familiar to many retail forex and CFD traders. The broker has described connectivity infrastructure linking major financial and technology hubs including London, New York, and Singapore. Its stated objective is to support the distribution of trading services and low-latency access across its international operating footprint. IUX developed a multi-jurisdictional regulatory structure. IUX Markets Ltd is associated with Mauritius's Financial Services Commission, while IUX Markets AU Pty Ltd is associated with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission. In 2024, IUX Markets ZA (Pty) Ltd received authorization from South Africa's Financial Sector Conduct Authority. These entities and licenses are relevant to the markets they serve; they do not mean that every IUX product is available in every country. The brokerage excludes or restricts access for several important markets, including the United States, the United Kingdom, European Union member states, and Australia through its international service arrangements. A major brand transition occurred in 2024, when IUX Markets was rebranded as IUX. The shorter name became the principal public identity while the corporate entities continued to use jurisdiction-specific legal names. During the same year, the company joined the Financial Commission in November. This organization provides an independent dispute-resolution route for participating brokers and their customers and may provide monetary protection for qualifying claim resolutions. Membership is an industry dispute-resolution measure and does not replace the powers or protections of statutory regulators. IUX also increased its visibility through sports sponsorship. In March 2024, the company became a sponsoring partner of Fulham, an English Premier League football club. The partnership connected the brokerage brand with a globally followed sports property and supported its international positioning. In 2025, IUX extended its public-facing activity into education and community support. Its reported initiatives included a collaboration with SOS Children's Villages Nigeria that provided educational materials to students at Ikija Community School in Ogun State, along with a book drive for schools in Johannesburg. The company is described as privately held and active. Reference material reports hundreds of thousands of active trading accounts across a number of countries, although the exact figure is time-sensitive and should not be treated as a permanent measure of scale. IUX's present identity is therefore built around a combination of retail forex and CFD access, digital trading platforms, multiple regulatory entities, international sponsorship, and community initiatives.
