The Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) issued a warning to Cyprus Investment Firms (CIFs), specifically CFD issuers, urging them to take urgent measures to “modify their procedures.”
Brokers with lax compliance methods would face enforcement proceedings with “much larger” penalties, according to the agency. Furthermore, the regulator has the authority to suspend or revoke the firms' operating licenses.
Cyprus is home to a number of financial services firms, most of which are brokers and other trading-industry firms. To operate in the European Economic Area, the enterprises often utilize their Cyprus license.
Despite the fact that Cyprus's welcoming laws have successfully attracted financial services businesses, numerous European authorities, notably ESMA, have pointed out compliance failures on the part of Cyprus-regulated enterprises.
