UTrade Background
In December 2015 a Tel Aviv court banned UTrade Premium Ltd from all investment activity, following an appeal submitted by the Israeli Securities Authority (ISA) claiming unlicensed investment activity by the company.
An ISA audit revealed that 40 of UTrade Premium’s 350 clients have asked to withdraw their investments and were still in the middle of the payment procedure. The audit also revealed that since the ISA banned the brokerage from signing new clients the previous May, it has nonetheless acquired 44 new clients, pouring $3.5 million into UTrade Premium’s bank account.
“We suspect UTrade Premium investors’ funds were transferred from company’s account for other proposes then agreed upon,” the ISA report noted. “In addition, we suspect that UTrade Premium is seeking for new investors, though the company will not be able to restore investors’ funds out of known insolvency.
