Abstract:In accordance with section 37 (4) of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz – KWG), BaFin would like to make clear that Forbschain, domiciled in Luxembourg, has not been granted authorisation under the KWG to conduct banking business or provide financial services. The company is not supervised by BaFin.
The information provided on the website operated by Forbschain, forbschain.com, and the information and documents available to BaFin give reasonable grounds to suspect that the company is conducting banking business/providing financial services in the Federal Republic of Germany without the required authorisation.
Under the KWG, authorisation is required in order to conduct banking business or provide financial services in Germany. However, some companies operate without the necessary authorisation. Information on whether a particular company has been authorised by BaFin can be found in BaFins database of companies.
BaFin, the German Federal Criminal Police Office (Bundeskriminalamt – BKA) and the German state criminal police offices (Landeskriminalämter) recommend that consumers seeking to invest money online should exercise the utmost caution and do the necessary research beforehand in order to identify fraud attempts at an early stage.

The moment the SQUARED FINANCIAL review column opens, a pattern of disturbing complaints appears, demonstrating massive user frustration over alleged withdrawal denials for months, fund disappearance from the platform, frequent login issues and more.

Yes, it’s true! The Government of India decided to ban Telegram in the country on June 16, 2026, surprising many who rely on this platform for daily trading alerts & advisories. The ban has taken effect under Section 69A of the IT Act as part of the government’s plan to stop fraud during the NEET-UG re-examination. According to reports, fraudulent rackets were selling fake question papers for amounts ranging from INR 5,000 to 50,000. But the ban, which will be effective until June 22, 2026, affects far more than students. It transcended from a messaging blockout to a sudden disengagement from the app that shaped many traders’ daily routine over time. Out of the 15 crore plus unique registered investors in India, a large chunk sought trading tips, market news, along with buy and sell signals on Telegram. It must have taken investors by surprise. But is the ban detrimental to traders, or is there something more than meets the eye?
