NAGA Canada Review: Is It Regulated in Canada?
By ForexCanada Editorial Team · Updated
Canada check
NAGA holds licences outside Canada but is not registered with CIRO or any provincial securities regulator. If it accepts you, your account will normally be opened with an offshore group entity rather than its better-regulated subsidiaries — so CIPF coverage, CIRO margin rules and OBSI complaint handling do not apply. We could not confirm that it currently accepts Canadian residents — check its restricted-countries list before applying.

NAGA combines a social feed, copy trading, CFDs and a crypto wallet in one app, and its parent is listed in Germany. International clients are generally served through its Seychelles entity. Not registered in Canada. As with any copy-trading product, remember that Canadian rules require people who manage your trades to be registered.

How NAGA scores
Canadian protection carries 40% of the weight, so an unregistered firm can't outrank a registered one on price alone. See the full methodology.

NAGA: frequently asked questions
Is NAGA regulated in Canada?
No. NAGA is not registered with CIRO or any provincial or territorial securities regulator, although it holds licences elsewhere (Cyprus (EU), Seychelles). Canadian protections such as CIPF coverage and OBSI complaint handling do not apply.
Can Canadians open an account with NAGA?
We could not confirm this. Check NAGA's restricted-countries list and account-opening terms, and remember that even if it accepts you, you won't have Canadian regulatory protection.
Does NAGA offer MetaTrader?
Yes — NAGA supports MT4 and MT5.
