In my direct experience with Cathay Futures, I found that assessing withdrawal timeframes is not straightforward due to limited official communication about specific processing periods. While Cathay Futures is a longstanding, regulated futures and leveraged forex broker based in Taiwan, their website and customer materials did not clearly state average withdrawal speeds when I last checked. In my cautious approach, I attempted to reach out via their provided support channels, but found contact options rather limited compared to major international brokers. Given their regulatory oversight by the Taipei Exchange and long operation history, I consider Cathay Futures reasonably credible from a structural perspective. Still, the lack of transparency regarding withdrawal processing times naturally prompts a conservative stance. In practice, Taiwan-based regulated brokers like this often process fund withdrawals within a few business days—commonly in the range of 2-5 working days for domestic bank transfers in my previous experiences with similar institutions. However, international transfers or non-traditional e-wallet methods (should they be supported) might take longer due to cross-border clearance and additional compliance checks. Because financial timelines can be affected by compliance requirements, bank processing speeds, and internal risk controls, I always recommend setting expectations around patience and confirming with customer support before relying on a specific timeframe. For me, prudent risk management includes only trading with funds that can tolerate occasional delays and keeping documentation ready in case verification is requested during withdrawals.
