Asset-segregation composite governed by the weaker axis — (segregation × ) = 8.4, (custody tier) = 6.0. Dimension score = 6.0.
AMP Futures scores 59/100 (Adequate) — AMP Global Clearing LLC (NFA 0412490, CFTC FCM) is a US-only broker with real structural strengths and a clean five-year enforcement window. CFTC §4d statutory segregation with verified zero rehypothecation (100% cash or T-bills, confirmed from AMP's own September 2025 disclosure), three named FCM carrying brokers (GH Financials, Advantage Futures, Dorman Trading), 17 years of continuous single-owner operation, and adjusted net capital of $17.1M (17× the regulatory minimum). The primary drag is structural: US futures has no investor compensation scheme. SIPC excludes futures by statute; no CIPF equivalent exists. D2 = 1.8/10. Canadian access is limited to Alberta, Ontario, and Quebec (confirmed); British Columbia at senior-manager discretion; all other provinces excluded. Entity-mismatch fires for all Canadian clients — no CIPF coverage at any tier. Two pre-window enforcement actions on record (2015 NFA supervisory action; 2018 CFTC $100K cybersecurity — both resolved, both outside the five-year scoring window, no client-harm finding in either).
Active Canadian futures traders in AB/ON/QC (or BC with manager approval) who accept a US FCM with §4d-only protection, value low day-trading margins and deep platform breadth (Rithmic, CQG, Sierra Chart), and have reviewed the absence of a compensation scheme.
Canadian residents outside AB/ON/QC/BC; traders who require a compensation scheme (CIPF or SIPC equivalent) or treat the absence of investor protection insurance as disqualifying.
