FAQ

EUEAA is an independent External Dispute Resolution (EDR) organization that supports consumers and traders in resolving conflicts with registered financial service providers. Our goal is to provide traders and brokers with a streamlined, efficient approach to tackling challenges within the crypto trading market.

The main mission of EUEAA is to serve as a neutral third-party entity that helps traders and brokers resolve conflicts efficiently and fairly. We provide an alternative to industry regulators and legal proceedings by offering a structured, impartial, and faster approach to dispute resolution.

By acting as a mediator, we aim to uphold integrity in the trading ecosystem, protect traders’ interests, and enhance trust within the crypto market.

Each broker registered with EUEAA is required to have a Complaints Contact and an Internal Dispute Resolution (IDR) procedure. When a trader files a complaint, the broker must respond with:

  • Acknowledgment of the complaint – Confirming that the issue has been received and is under review.
  • A proposed resolution – This may include offering compensation if deemed necessary.
  • A formal response – If the broker chooses to dismiss the complaint, they must provide a clear explanation for their decision.

If the trader is not satisfied with the broker’s response after completing the IDR process, they have the right to escalate the case by submitting a formal complaint to European Union Asset Control for further review and resolution.

No, EUEAA is not a regulatory body and does not claim to be one. Instead, we function as an independent External Dispute Resolution (EDR) organization, providing an impartial platform for resolving disputes between traders and brokers. Our goal is to ensure fairness, transparency, and efficiency in the resolution process.
