In Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, the registered entity for Sway Markets is also Sway Markets Pty Ltd, registered on February 8, 2023, with a registered address at Euro House, Richmond Hill Road, Kingstown, P.O. Box 2897, and a registration number of 1661. However, the Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Financial Services Authority (SVGFSA) does not regulate or license commercial companies (BCs) engaged in forex trading or brokerage activities. Their regulatory scope is limited to ensuring that BCs comply with the obligations set out in the Revised and Consolidated Business Companies (Amendment and Consolidation) Act of 2009. In other words, Sway Markets does not have legitimate regulation in place.

Summary:
It's important to note that Sway Markets, while holding a CAR license, has limited regulatory oversight, and it is authorized to provide financial services to wholesale clients only. Moreover, the company is registered under the same name in two different countries, making it difficult to determine whether it operates in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines or Australia. The Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Financial Services Authority does not regulate forex trading or financial businesses, meaning that Sway Markets lacks legitimate qualifications to provide financial services to retail clients. As of now, the broker is flagged as "suspected fraud" on Traderknows.
