Unauthorised Firm Details

Name: Skanestas.net
Website: skanestas.net

Overview

Skanestas presents itself as a global trading platform offering access to a wide variety of financial markets through a single account. The company claims that it partners with world-class accounting firms to audit trading volumes and client assets in real time, positioning transparency as a key principle.

They also emphasize the use of a trading platform called “ST7” which supports trading from PC or mobile, and advertise very low spreads, fast execution, and a wide product range (stocks, CFDs, gold, oil, Bitcoin, currencies).

Claims

Here’s what Skanestas claims on its site:

• Single Account, Multiple Markets: One trading account gives access to stocks, indices, crude oil, precious metals, Bitcoin, currencies, and more.

• Low Costs & Fast Execution: Spreads “as low as 0,” execution speed under 40 milliseconds, and no repeated quotes.

• Liquidity & Infrastructure: They claim to use top banks and liquidity providers, and servers located (e.g., “NY4”) to support trading.

• Regulation & Licensing: The website states Skanestas is headquartered in Australia, with subsidiaries regulated by the Australian Securities & Investments Commission (ASIC), license number 488828.

• Global Reach & Support: Clients from over 100 countries, support in many languages, and a management team said to travel globally to understand client needs.

• Fairness & Transparency: They claim no hidden terms, and that what’s displayed is what all clients receive.

• Customer Focus: They assert that client capital size doesn’t affect the quality of service, execution, or support.

They include standard risk disclosures: that trading CFDs involves high risk, losses can exceed deposits, and investors should only invest what they can afford to lose.

Skanestas positions itself as a broad, ambitious trading platform combining diverse asset classes with low costs and high performance. If all its claims are accurate, it would be an appealing option for active traders seeking flexibility and market access.

However, many of its claims are precisely the kinds of claims one should treat with caution — ultra-low spreads, guaranteed performance, broad regulation, and “no hidden terms” slogans
