Regulatory Divergence: UK vs. EU Post-Brexit for Forex Brokers

The regulatory landscape for forex brokers operating in both the UK (FCA) and the EU (ESMA/local regulators) continues to diverge. We're finding it increasingly complex to maintain full compliance across both jurisdictions without redundant efforts. Specifically, we're navigating differing interpretations of marketing rules and client categorisation. Any brokers successfully streamlining their compliance processes across these two significant blocs?

Absolutely, it's a constant battle. We've ended up almost running two parallel compliance departments just to keep everything straight. The client categorization differences are particularly annoying.

While it's not ideal, I wonder if thinking of them as entirely separate markets, rather than trying to bridge them, simplifies things in the long run. Trying to find a 'one size fits all' solution seems to lead to more headaches than it solves.
