The German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin) is looking into RXK Management Ltd., a firm that offers online trading in a variety of products, including Forex and cryptocurrency.
According to Section 37(4) of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz, - KWG), BaFin cautions that RXK Management Ltd. is not authorized to conduct banking activity or offer financial services under the KWG. BaFin does not oversee the firm.
The material on the company's website, rxkcapital.com, suggests that RXK Management Ltd. is doing banking activity and offering financial services in Germany without the necessary permission.
According to WikiFX data, RXK has not been authorized by any financial authorities, which essentially implies that the company has no permission to do financial business or any other kind of financial investment activity.
WikiFX attempted to search RXK Capital on two major financial regulators, BaFin and FCA but found no results.
Companies that do banking activity or provide financial services in Germany must be licensed under the KWG. However, some businesses operate without the proper permits. BaFin's business database contains information on whether a certain firm has been given authorization.
BaFin, the German Federal Criminal Police Office (Bundeskriminalamt - BKA), and the German state criminal police offices (Landeskriminalämter) advise consumers seeking to invest money online to exercise extreme caution and conduct extensive research ahead of time in order to detect fraud attempts early on.
