Inverest has been flagged by Autorité des marchés financiers for "Unregistered/Unlicensed entity offering financial products or services". Inverest is not registered with the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) and is not authorized to solicit investors in Québec. This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm. Website domain: inverest.com.
I requested my data from Inverest under GDPR. They sent a partial export that was missing months of transactions. When I asked for the rest they said it was a technical issue. Still waiting. They do not take data rights seriously.
Pros: API access|Professional team
Cons: Research section could be deeper
Several red flags with Inverest: (1) They promise unrealistically high returns, (2) They're not registered with Autorité des marchés financiers, (3) Their contact information is vague, (4) They pressure you to deposit quickly. I recommend everyone do thorough due diligence before investing with any company.
Pros: Website looks legitimate on the surface
Cons: Not registered with regulators|Unrealistic promises
Inverest had an outage that lasted several hours during a major market event. Not only did they fail to prevent it, but they also failed to communicate what was happening. We were left in the dark while our investments were at risk.
Pros: Two-factor authentication|Economic calendar|Detailed reporting|Social trading features
Cons: Slow to add new assets|Some tools only available on higher tiers
I have been trying to close my account with Inverest for weeks now and they keep giving me the runaround. First it was a form to fill out, then identity verification again, then a mandatory phone call that never gets scheduled. They make leaving impossible.
Pros: Clear documentation|Segregated accounts|Real-time alerts
Cons: Limited cryptocurrency options
Their execution during news is terrible. I had limit orders in place. When the news hit, my orders were not filled at the limit price - they were filled much worse. Inverest said it was market conditions. Same news, another broker filled me properly. They are not honest.
Pros: Responsive team|Wide product range
Cons: Alert system is basic
Do not be fooled by the professional-looking website. Behind the scenes, Inverest is disorganized and incompetent. I found them through a podcast recommendation and I can only assume the positive reviews are either outdated or paid for because my experience was terrible.
Pros: Instant funding|Easy withdrawals|Automated trading options|Excellent charting
Cons: No dark mode on mobile
My card was charged twice by Inverest on the same day. I had to dispute it with my bank. Inverest then froze my account and said I had a negative balance because of the chargeback. They created the problem and then punished me for it.
Pros: Clean UI|Real-time alerts|Reliable uptime|Economic calendar
Cons: No integrated tax optimization
Inverest locked my account without warning and demanded documents I had already submitted. for over a year later I still do not have access to my funds. Their compliance team does not respond to emails. I am considering legal action.
Pros: Low minimum deposit|Quick verification|Dedicated account manager
Cons: Wish they had more educational resources
Tried to withdraw my funds from Inverest and was told I needed to pay a "withdrawal tax" of 20%. This is a red flag. No legitimate broker charges withdrawal taxes. When I refused, they became aggressive and eventually stopped all communication. My entire investment is gone.
Cons: Withdrawal fees demanded|Communication cut off|Not authorized
