CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.

Notes

The BVI FSC register gives no licence number, so the licence field describes the register entry instead. The countries this entity serves are not stated. The EU site doesn't publish spreads, so we use the pricing and minimum deposit from Deriv's global site for its EU entity too.
