Diligence
How we test brokers
- Confirm the broker appears in the Kodiac MT5 directory and connectivity docs.
- Check public entity / platform claims against primary sources — never invent licences.
- Score only when evidence exists; otherwise leave cells pending.
- Disclose that Kodiac is not the broker and does not custody broker balances.
01 · Overview
Introduction
Connecting Exness MT5 under a Kodiac mandate? Kodiac connects your existing Exness MetaTrader 5 account for mandate-desk execution with defined risk parameters — while capital stays at Exness. This page is diligence for Exness-on-Kodiac connectivity, not a substitute for Exness’s own disclosures. After desk approval, Kodiac handles mandate orchestration and reporting. Compare Exness to IC Markets or Vantage only after entity and funding checks.
Best for
- Traders who already hold an Exness MT5 account and want mandate-desk orchestration on Kodiac
- Users who need flexible funding rails (including crypto in supported regions) while keeping custody at the broker
- Desks that value fast account operations and a wide retail/pro product surface
Not ideal for
- Anyone seeking a single global licence story — Exness uses multiple legal entities by region
- Traders who want Kodiac to custody funds (we do not)
- Users who will not verify the exact Exness entity offered in their country
02 · Fit
Who should use
Choose Exness-on-Kodiac if you already trust Exness as your broker of record and want capital-first automation without moving balances into a third-party wallet. Beginners who already completed Exness KYC often prefer this path because funding familiarity beats theoretical “best broker” lists. Skip this path if you cannot identify which Exness legal entity serves you, or if your jurisdiction blocks Exness onboarding.
Pros
- Broad retail recognition and deep MT5 usage in many emerging markets Kodiac serves
- Account operations and funding options are typically extensive (confirm live on Exness for your entity)
- Clear separation of roles when paired with Kodiac: broker custody vs desk technology
- Strong fit for USDT-oriented funding workflows where Exness supports them in-region
Cons
- Multi-entity structure means “Exness” is not one licence — due diligence is mandatory
- Marketing claims on third-party review sites are noisy; ignore awards without primary sources
- Spreads, swap-free terms, and leverage differ sharply by account type and entity
- Kodiac approval adds a second gate after you already passed Exness KYC

Regulation & trust
Exness operates through multiple regulated entities depending on client location. Do not assume a single CySEC/FCA/other licence covers every account. Match your client agreement’s legal entity to the official Exness site and the regulator’s public register before depositing.
- Ask which legal entity issued your account (company name on the client agreement).
- Confirm that entity on the regulator’s register — not on affiliate blogs.
- Kodiac is Kodiac Capital Limited (Dubai company registration (filing in progress)) and is not Exness.

04 · Markets
Trading conditions
Typical Exness MT5 offerings span major FX, metals, indices, energies, and crypto CFDs where permitted. Leverage, margin calls, stop-out levels, and instrument lists are entity- and account-specific. Treat any leverage figure you see online as unverified until it appears in your Exness terminal or client area. For Kodiac mandate desks, size risk with our position-size calculator and your chosen mandate risk parameters — broker leverage is not a strategy mandate.
05 · Platforms
Platforms
MetaTrader 5 is the relevant path for Kodiac mandate desks. Exness also markets proprietary apps in some regions; Kodiac connectivity for desks is MT5-credential based. Use the same server/login/password set shown in your Exness MT5 installation. After connection, monitor the Kodiac desk dashboard for risk pauses — broker apps will not show Kodiac risk-tier logic.
06 · Instruments
Instruments
Expect a wide CFD book on supported entities (FX majors/minors, metals, indices, energies, crypto CFDs where offered). Availability is not universal — check Market Watch on your live MT5 build. If a symbol is missing, Kodiac cannot invent it; choose instruments your Exness account actually exposes.
07 · Costs
Fees & spreads
Exness pricing is account-type dependent (often including standard and raw/zero-style variants). We do not publish invented pip tables. Compare live quotes in MT5 and the Exness fee schedule for your entity. Model all-in cost (spread + commission + swap) on your top symbols before scaling a desk.
| Item | Guidance |
|---|---|
| Spreads | Live in MT5 — verify per symbol and session |
| Commission | Depends on account type; see Exness schedule |
| Swaps / overnight | Symbol and account policy specific; check terminal |
| Swap-free / Islamic | Entity policy — confirm eligibility in client area |
| Deposit / withdrawal fees | Method and entity specific on Exness |
| Inactivity / conversion | Check Exness schedule for your entity |
| Kodiac fees | Separate from broker — disclosed in Kodiac product flows |
08 · Funding
Deposits
Funding happens on Exness, not on Kodiac. Methods commonly include cards, local rails, e-wallets, and crypto (including USDT rails where enabled). Processing times and minimums belong to Exness and the payment provider — confirm in the Exness client area for your region. Never send deposits to a personal wallet “for Kodiac.”
09 · Withdrawals
Withdrawals
Withdraw back through Exness using approved methods. Keep KYC current to avoid payout friction. Kodiac cannot release broker balances. If a desk is paused on Kodiac, that does not move or freeze Exness withdrawal rights by itself — follow Exness client-area rules.
10 · Accounts
Account types
Exness typically offers multiple MT5 account types (standard vs raw/zero-style naming varies). For Kodiac mandate desks, pick the MT5 account you actually trade and submit those exact credentials. Changing account type later may require a new desk review. Demo credentials are not a substitute for a funded live path when you intend live automation.
11 · Support
Support
Exness support channels (chat/help centre) are separate from Kodiac support. For desk connection issues after approval, contact Kodiac support; for deposits, leverage, or MT5 server passwords, contact Exness. Keep ticket IDs — mixed support threads slow approvals.
12 · Safety
Safety
Safety starts with entity clarity and official domains. Bookmark Exness from a known-good source. On Kodiac, remember: we do not custody Exness balances; phishing that asks you to “transfer to Kodiac wallet” is a red flag. Use /verify-official for Kodiac channels and /trust-center for how we talk about risk. Enable 2FA on Exness where offered.
13 · Verdict
Verdict
Exness remains a practical Tier-A broker for Kodiac MT5 desks when you already bank with Exness and can name your legal entity. Best for connectivity scale and funding flexibility. Not best if you need a single-licence story without homework. Connect on Kodiac only after Exness KYC and live MT5 access work — then validate with small size before scaling.

Frequently asked questions
Regulation, broker connect, pause floors, and how access works.
Exness typically allows automated trading via MetaTrader Expert Advisors and third-party connections, subject to your entity’s trading rules. Kodiac is a mandate-desk path: you connect Exness MT5 credentials; capital stays at Exness. Always confirm bot / EA policies in your Exness client agreement.
Kodiac runs mandate-aligned desk execution on your Exness MT5 account after desk approval — mandate risk parameters, reporting, and execution controls — without moving funds off Exness. It is not a guaranteed-profit product.
Yes. In the Kodiac app, open the MT5 brokers flow, choose Exness, and submit login, password, and server exactly as in MT5. Desk approval is required before strategies run.
No. Balances stay at Exness. Kodiac provides the mandate layer — desk execution, monitoring and reporting.
It depends on the legal entity on your client agreement. Verify that entity on Exness.com and the regulator register — do not rely on third-party blogs.
See /compare/exness-vs-ic-markets. Exness often wins on funding familiarity in some regions; IC Markets is frequently chosen for raw-style pricing culture. Neither is universally “best.”
If Exness onboarding and funding already work for you, it can be a practical first broker of record. Beginners should still verify the legal entity, start with a conservative Kodiac mandate, and avoid copying unaudited “guaranteed return” claims.
Only if Exness enables crypto/USDT methods for your entity. Confirm in the Exness client area. See our USDT deposit guide for operational hygiene — Kodiac never processes the broker deposit.
Login, password, and server exactly as shown in your Exness MT5 installation. Typos are the most common approval delay.
See /compare/exness-vs-vantage. Stay with the broker you can fund cleanly today; switching mid-desk adds operational risk.
Methodology
We evaluate brokers for Kodiac MT5 mandate-desk connectivity using publicly available entity information, platform availability, funding channels, and operational fit. We do not invent licence numbers, awards, or statistics. Unverified claims stay unpublished. This page prioritises Kodiac mandate-desk fit and publicly checkable entity clarity. G3-07 deepened fee tables, FAQs, and LIVE-impression reviews (FP Markets, OANDA, IG, XM). Exact spreads, leverage, and licence numbers change by legal entity and jurisdiction — always confirm on the broker’s official site and the relevant regulator register before funding. We do not publish star ratings.
