As AsstModerator said, a broker being in Russia or anywhere in the world is irrelevant. I personally know a lot of Russian brokers who offer impeccable service. Other than the NFA, regulation just adds some badge to the broker that he is regulated and that's it. I've never seen a claim to regulators go anywhere. I'll be glad to be proven wrong. Even with the NFA, when a company goes bankrupt, the matter goes to the court and it goes pending. I've been receiving emails monthly from US department of justice regarding Craig Carlis case at BMFN. It's been a couple of years now.
Regarding this thread, unless the client states otherwise, I believe that the funds should have arrived by now, and this case appears to be solved.
