Spain’s CNMV Flags Six Unlicensed Forex Brokers

Spains National Securities Market Commission (CNMV) has issued a warning against six websites found to be offering financial and forex services without the required authorization. The regulator stressed that unlicensed brokers pose significant risks to investor protection and should be avoided.

CNMV‘s Position on Investor Safety

As Spain’s financial markets watchdog, the CNMV regularly publishes “public warnings” to remind investors that entities lacking authorization cannot legally provide investment services in the country. For those who engage with such firms, the risks are considerable—ranging from the potential loss of funds to the absence of legal safeguards in case of disputes.

The regulator highlighted that investors must verify a brokers regulatory status before opening accounts or transferring money, particularly when the offers seem attractive or exclusively online.

Six Firms Named in the Warning

According to the CNMV, the following websites are operating without authorization in Spain:

• Ghcwm / GHC Wealth Management – Website: sp.ghcwm.com
• BlumBerg / BlumBerg Trade – Website: blumbergtrade.net
• Ever Trust Gain – Website: evertrustz-gain.com
• KHNTUS – Website: khntus.com
• InteractivePRO / Interactive Pro LTD – Website: interactive-proltd.com
• PPC Finance – Website: ppc.finance

The CNMV clarified that these companies are not registered under Spains Securities Market Law, meaning their investment and forex-related services lack the oversight necessary to protect investors.

What Investors Should Do

Investors are strongly advised to verify broker details directly on the CNMVs official website before making financial decisions. This step is crucial in avoiding unauthorized platforms that could misuse client funds or fail to provide proper safeguards.

Staying alert to regulator warnings and consulting reliable resources helps investors reduce risk and trade with greater confidence.
