Pros & cons
Fund safety
Client funds are segregated, with Lloyd's insurance on the main offshore entity.
The group states that it keeps client money in separate accounts from company funds. All MEX Atlantic Corporation clients are covered by an excess of loss insurance policy with Lloyd's of London of up to US$1,000,000 per account. This is a private insurance policy that can pay out if the broker fails and your losses go beyond what's normally protected.
This insurance is not a statutory scheme, and offshore entities have no statutory investor compensation.
Account terms
Account terms vary by the entity you join.
MultiBank Group publishes its privacy policy, terms and conditions, risk warning and swap-free agreement, and provides fund withdrawal forms for each regulated entity.
An inactivity fee of $60 a month applies after 90 days without activity.
Costs
Costs depend on the account, from spread-only Standard to raw-spread ECN.
The Standard account offers floating spreads from 1.5 pips with no commission, and the Pro account from 0.8 pips. The ECN account offers raw spreads from 0.0 pips with a commission of $6 per lot round turn ($3 per side).
Spreads and swaps are variable and change with real-time market conditions, so live costs should be checked in the trading platform. MultiBank Group charges no broker fee on deposits or withdrawals, though intermediary banks may charge for wire transfers.

Verdict
MultiBank Group is a long-established broker group founded in 2005, with licences from 11 financial regulators, including ASIC, BaFin and MAS. International clients are typically onboarded through offshore entities such as MEX Atlantic Corporation, whose accounts carry Lloyd's insurance of up to US$1,000,000 but no statutory compensation scheme, and leverage reaches 1000:1. It suits MetaTrader traders who want a broad product range and understand which entity holds their account.
MultiBank Group may suit you if you trade on MT4 or MT5, want access to a very wide range of instruments and value Lloyd's insurance cover. It is less suitable if you need your account held by a Tier-1 regulated entity or want low leverage limits.
Forex and CFD traders, EA users and multi-asset traders who are comfortable with high leverage and checking which group entity they join. Newer traders who want strict leverage caps and statutory protection should confirm they are onboarded by a Tier-1 regulated entity.

General CFD risk warning
CFDs are complex leveraged products and carry a high risk of rapid losses. They do not give you ownership of the underlying asset. Depending on your jurisdiction, broker entity and client classification, protections such as leverage limits and negative-balance protection may differ or may not apply. Where negative-balance protection is not provided, losses may exceed the funds you deposit. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford the high risk of losing your money.
