Alvexo Resumes Business As License Suspension Ends

WikiFX | 2023-10-25 17:00

The Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) has officially removed the suspension of Alvexo's operating license, signifying a significant turnaround for the broker following a series of fines and regulatory challenges that had initially cast a shadow over its operations.

Alvexo's parent company, VPR Safe Financial Group, found itself in a precarious situation after being flagged for non-compliance with the Investment Services and Activities and Regulated Markets Law 2007. CySEC had temporarily suspended the company's license due to concerns that it was not adhering to Cyprus' legal requirements, particularly concerning its marketing communications with clients.

The brand also faced allegations of non-compliance with authorization conditions outlined in several articles, particularly those related to the appropriateness of their products offered to specific client segments.

However, after months of dedicated corrective actions and measures undertaken by Alvexo, the Cypriot regulator is now satisfied with the company's efforts to ensure compliance. CySEC has duly noted Alvexo's commitment to rectify the violations that initially led to the suspension, resulting in the removal of the license freeze.

As per the regulator's circular, the company has fulfilled its obligations under Section 26(1) of the Law, ensuring that individuals providing investment advice or information on its behalf possess the requisite knowledge and skills to perform their duties effectively.

The decision to lift the suspension of Alvexo's CIF (Cyprus Investment Firm) license was finalized in 2021. Alvexo, operating under the regulation of CySEC, must continue to adhere to Cyprus' stringent regulations to maintain its CIF trading license, allowing the broker to provide its services across Europe, as emphasized by the regulatory body.

Alvexo had faced multiple allegations of regulatory violations, prompting concerns about the interests of its clients and the integrity of capital market operations. The investigation primarily centered around VPR's failure to comply with restrictions related to the marketing, distribution, and sale of contracts for difference (CFDs) to retail clients. Alongside the license suspension, CySEC imposed a fine of €100,000.

With nearly one million registered accounts, Alvexo maintains its presence with offices in Cyprus and France. The removal of the license suspension represents a pivotal moment for the company, allowing it to refocus on its operations in the European market, having successfully addressed the regulatory concerns that had previously hindered its activities.

After a period of relative quiet, the Cypriot regulator is once again actively scrutinizing compliance irregularities, a move that underscores their commitment to upholding regulatory standards.

CySEC has also taken stringent measures, suspending several forex brokers found promoting their high-risk products in the UK. This action followed reports of various brands, including the use of fake celebrity endorsements for their products on social media, as outlined by the UK regulatory counterpart.
