Partners-Swiss has been flagged by Commissione Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa for "Unregistered/Unlicensed entity offering financial products or services|Genera...". This company appears in our regulatory warnings database. Always verify with official regulatory sources before investing or doing business with this firm.
Partners-Swiss 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|Clear documentation
Cons: Limited demo account features|None so far
I joined Partners-Swiss through my accountant's suggestion and from the start, things felt off. The signup process collected far more personal information than necessary, the verification took unreasonably long, and when I finally got access, the platform was nothing like what was advertised.
Pros: Instant funding|Transparent fees|Professional team
Cons: Inactivity fee applies after 12 months
I wanted to transfer my portfolio from another broker to Partners-Swiss. They said they do not accept in-kind transfers for my asset type. I had to sell, withdraw, deposit, and rebuy - incurring taxes and spread costs. They did not tell me this before I signed up.
Pros: Automated trading options|No hidden fees|Easy to use platform
Cons: Wish they had more educational resources
I was contacted by Partners-Swiss through social media. They promised guaranteed returns of 20-30% monthly. Being naive, I invested. The "account manager" pressured me to invest more and more. When I finally tried to take profit, my account was frozen and they stopped responding. Classic Ponzi/advance fee fraud.
Pros: Professional looking website
Cons: No regulatory oversight|Money disappeared|Fake testimonials
I was about to invest with Partners-Swiss but decided to check their regulatory status first. They claim to be regulated but I could not find them on any official register. Commissione Nazionale per le Società e la Borsa has actually issued a warning about this firm. Thank goodness I checked before sending any money.
Pros: Website looks legitimate on the surface
Cons: Listed in warning databases|No transparency|Pressure to invest quickly
The only good thing about Partners-Swiss is that they remind you why regulation matters. I found them through a forum discussion. They are regulated in a jurisdiction with weak consumer protection. When things went wrong I had nowhere to turn. Stick to well-regulated brokers.
Pros: Competitive fees|Comprehensive tools
Cons: Limited cryptocurrency options
The platform itself is okay, but the customer service at Partners-Swiss 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: Quick verification|Tax reports included|Transparent fees|Great customer service
Cons: Could offer more webinars
