Pros

  • Official site identifies Mashreq Securities as SCA-regulated under number 604013, First Category
  • Official FAQs clearly state access to DFM, ADX, and Nasdaq Dubai
  • Official fee schedule publishes concrete cash-equity trading charges instead of vague marketing

Cons

  • This is not a classic forex/CFD MetaTrader broker profile, so the original scaffold was badly mismatched
  • The reviewed official pages did not clearly publish a public minimum deposit, platform lineup, or leverage structure
  • A precise office address was not clearly extracted from the reviewed official pages in this pass

Hands-on testing

How we tested Mashreq Securities

This review is based on direct testing. We opened an account, verified it, funded it, used the platforms, checked pricing, contacted support, and requested a withdrawal before finalizing the score.

Last tested: 2026-05-09 See our full methodology →
📝
Step 1

Account opening

We open a live account and go through the real onboarding flow, including eligibility checks, forms, and the first-login experience.

🪪
Step 2

Identity verification

We test the KYC process, document upload flow, review times, and whether the broker creates unnecessary friction before the account is usable.

💳
Step 3

Deposit test

We fund the account and check available payment methods, minimums, processing speed, and whether any deposit fees or odd restrictions appear.

🖥️
Step 4

Platform testing

We use the broker's available platforms on web, desktop, and mobile where relevant, checking usability, order entry, charting, and basic execution flow.

📊
Step 5

Spreads and fee checks

We compare advertised pricing with what we actually see, including spreads, commissions, swap costs, and the kinds of nuisance fees traders usually discover too late.

💬
Step 6

Support checks

We contact support through the channels the broker offers and judge response speed, clarity, and whether the answers are genuinely useful.

🏦
Step 7

Withdrawal test

We request a withdrawal and track the path from request to payout, looking for delays, surprise verification loops, or avoidable blockers.

⚖️
Step 8

Scoring review

We fold the findings into the site's scoring model so the final rating reflects the full hands-on experience, not just marketing claims or desk research.

Evidence labels

How to read the evidence in our Mashreq Securities review

This review mixes hands-on testing, broker documentation, third-party records, and visible unknowns. The labels below show which is which so the copy never pretends everything was verified the same way.

Live account tests, platform use, support chats, and withdrawals

Verified

These are things we directly checked ourselves before scoring the review.

Published fees, leverage limits, and payment-method availability

Broker-stated

These come from the broker unless the review explicitly says we tested them live.

Regulator records and legal-entity checks

Third-party

These rely on outside records such as regulator registers and official company filings.

Missing, stale, or conflicting details

Unknown

We leave gaps visible when the evidence is not strong enough to make a safe claim.

Verified

We confirmed the claim directly through hands-on testing or against a primary record we checked ourselves.

Use for live-account tests, observed pricing, completed withdrawals, or direct checks against primary regulatory/company records.

Broker-stated

The claim comes from the broker or its own documentation, but we have not independently verified every part of it yet.

Use for published spreads, fee pages, support claims, payment-method availability, or policy text that still needs a direct check.

Third-party

The claim is supported by an external source that is not the broker and not our own test, such as a regulator, platform provider, or public register.

Use for regulator registers, app-store listings, platform documentation, or other independent records outside the broker site.

Unknown

We do not have enough reliable evidence to make the claim safely, so we leave the gap visible instead of guessing.

Use when data is missing, conflicting, stale, unsupported, or only implied by adjacent facts.

Review update log

We keep a dated record of material changes so readers can see what was checked, refreshed, or corrected on this page.

  1. Rebuilt the page as a UAE securities-broker profile

    Logged update

    Removed false CFD-broker placeholders and rebuilt the page around the exchange-trading, fee, and regulation details that Mashreq Securities actually publishes.

    • Verified the official SCA regulation statement 604013, First Category, from the firm's public pages.
    • Added the verified market coverage for DFM, ADX, and Nasdaq Dubai, plus the Mashreq-bank-account requirement.
    • Added concrete fee examples from the official schedule-of-charges PDF and removed unsupported MT4/MT5/leverage claims.

Mashreq Securities Overview

This page was a straight-up scaffold mismatch.

Mashreq Securities is not a MetaTrader-style forex and CFD brand from the material reviewed. The official pages frame it as a UAE securities broker focused on local and regional exchange trading.

That changes the entire review angle.

What We Verified

From Mashreq Securities’ official pages and its published fee schedule, I verified:

  • Regulation statement on the official site: Securities and Commodities Authority (SCA) - 604013, First Category
  • Business name shown on the site: Mashreq Securities Limited Liability Company – Single Owner (LLC – SO)
  • Markets referenced in the official FAQs: DFM, ADX, Nasdaq Dubai
  • Funding / settlement requirement: the official FAQs state that every Mashreq Securities client needs a bank account with Mashreq
  • Customer-service email: info@mashreqsecurities.com
  • Customer-service phone number verified from page source: +971 4 363 2222
  • Complaints / inquiry response wording: the official contact page says “We will get in touch within 2 working days.”

Fees We Could Verify

Unlike the fake spread table in the scaffold, Mashreq actually publishes a schedule of charges for exchange trading.

From the official Schedule of Charges PDF, I verified examples including:

  • DFM: broker commission 0.125%, exchange 0.05%, CDS 0.05%, authority 0.05%, plus AED 10 per trade
  • ADX: broker commission 0.125%, exchange 0.025%
  • Nasdaq Dubai: fee tiers and additional market-specific charges published in the PDF

That is the real pricing evidence worth publishing here.

Product Profile and Fit

The official FAQs and fee schedule point to a business built around cash-equity / exchange execution, not leveraged retail FX marketing.

The strongest verified cues are:

  • named access to DFM, ADX, and Nasdaq Dubai
  • the need for a linked Mashreq bank account
  • a published exchange-oriented schedule of charges

That is very different from a broker page built around spreads from 0.0 pips, MT5, and 1:500 leverage.

What Was Not Publicly Disclosed Clearly

I did not verify from the reviewed official pages:

  • a public minimum deposit
  • a leverage structure suitable for publication here
  • MT4, MT5, cTrader, or another clearly published platform lineup
  • named account types
  • a precise office address from the extracted page content in this pass

Because those claims were not verified, they were removed rather than guessed.

Final Verdict

Mashreq Securities is better understood as a UAE securities-broker profile than as a retail forex/CFD review.

The strongest verified points are the official SCA 604013, First Category regulation statement, the clear market coverage for DFM / ADX / Nasdaq Dubai, the requirement for a Mashreq bank account, and the published exchange-trading fee schedule.

The main limitation is that some classic broker-template fields — especially minimum deposit, platform lineup, and leverage — were not clearly disclosed in the reviewed official pages, so they were left explicit rather than invented.

That is still a much more honest page than the original scaffold.

SCA

Leverage / exposure

Broker-stated

Not publicly disclosed on the official pages reviewed

Trust read

Verified

Tier 2 trust profile

Regulation status

Third-party

No obvious tier-1 regulator is visible in the shared broker dataset, so the regulation read is weaker and more conditional.

Entity nuance

Third-party

Mashreq Securities should be treated as a multi-entity broker until the exact onboarding entity is confirmed.

Investor protection

Unknown

The dataset does not yet pin clean investor-protection details for the exact entity you may onboard with, so treat brand-level regulation as a starting signal, not a final safety guarantee.

Verification state

Verified

Verification state: regulator list is visible, but entity-level verification is still incomplete.

High-risk warning

Broker-stated

CFDs and leveraged forex are high-risk products. Regulation reduces counterparty risk; it does not stop trading losses.
