Pakistan does not license retail forex brokers, so no broker holds a local licence here. That is how this market is built, not a sign of fraud.

Where the licence was issued decides what stands behind it, and we print the regulator's class rather than a score. Pakistan Stock Exchange Limited — class: listed by an exchange in your own country, not licensed by its regulator. Supervision: The exchange admits and can suspend its own brokers. What the country's regulator holds on this firm is not published in a form we can read, so we do not print it either way. Compensation: None that we can confirm.

Legal name as the register holds it: Aba Ali Habib Securities (Private) Limited. Websites a register ties to it: abaalihabib.com.
Public warning lists we read: 3 — Polish Financial Supervision Authority, Agency for Regulation and Development of the Financial Market, Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan. Entries we hold from them: 1385. Last reading: 2026-11-02. This company is not named in any of them. That is not a clean bill of health: it means no supervisor we read has published a notice about it.
Search the register yourself at www.psx.com.pk for Aba Ali Habib Securities (Private) Limited — the legal name, not the brand. A register files the company; a website advertises the name. Where the two differ, this page prints both so you can find the entry we are quoting.
