AGF Asset Management has been flagged by Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores for "Unregistered/Unlicensed entity offering financial products or services". This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm.
After spending for about five months trying to make AGF Asset Management work for me, I have given up. The platform has too many limitations, the fees are not competitive, and the quality of their market data is questionable. There are much better options available.
Pros: Easy to use platform|Fast execution|Copy trading available|Responsive team
Cons: Limited social trading features
I signed up with AGF Asset Management through a financial advisor and the first red flag was the aggressive account manager who would not stop calling. After depositing, the promised support vanished. Withdrawals are delayed with endless excuses. I have reported them to the regulator.
Pros: Reliable uptime|Personal attention
Cons: Live chat only during business hours
The spread at AGF Asset Management is not what they advertise. During volatile markets it widens so much that you lose before the trade even starts. I found them through a forum discussion and initially thought the platform was good - until I started trading seriously.
Pros: Two-factor authentication|Multiple order types|Helpful community forum
Cons: Limited social trading features
The platform itself is okay, but the customer service at AGF Asset Management is truly awful. I waited weeks for a response to a simple inquiry. When they did respond, it felt like a generic template that did not address my specific issue at all.
Pros: Social trading features|High security standards
Cons: Minimum deposit could be lower|Withdrawal takes 1-2 business days
After for a couple of months now with AGF Asset Management I requested to close my account and withdraw. They said I had to complete a 30-day cooling-off period. Then they said there was a minimum holding period for my last deposit. They make it as hard as possible to leave.
Pros: Reliable uptime|Responsive team|Clean UI
Cons: No live chat on mobile
