Broker availability in Bulgaria

Best brokers available in Bulgaria

Bulgarian residents can use licensed Bulgarian investment firms and properly passported EU investment firms, but the exact serving entity and product still matter. The Bulgarian Financial Supervision Commission (FSC) tells consumers to verify the intermediary and, for EU firms, the required notification for services in Bulgaria. Retail CFDs remain subject to national product-intervention protections, while binary options are prohibited for retail clients.

What traders should know

Verify the exact serving legal entity and authorised website. The FSC warns consumers to check licensed investment intermediaries and says EU investment firms offering services in Bulgaria must make the required notification to the FSC.
Retail CFD protections include asset-class leverage limits, a 50% margin close-out rule, negative-balance protection, standardised risk warnings and a prohibition on monetary and non-monetary trading incentives.
The standard retail CFD leverage limits are 30:1 for major FX pairs, 20:1 for non-major FX/gold/major indices, 10:1 for other commodities/non-major indices, 5:1 for individual equities/other reference values and 2:1 for crypto-assets.
Binary options may not be marketed, distributed or sold to Bulgarian retail clients under the FSC's permanent national measure.
Direct stocks, ETFs, listed options and exchange-traded futures must be distinguished from CFDs or other OTC derivatives referencing those markets.
