CySEC Cancels Inveza
Capital Trading Authorization
According
to the register of companies operating under CySEC authorization, Inveza
Capital obtained its license (number 209/13) in August 2013. Under the license, it
provided investment services through the internet address inveza.com.
"The
Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission announces that, on its meeting of 5th December 2022, has decided, pursuant to section 8(1)(a) of the Investment
Services and Activities and Regulated Markets Law of 2017 and section 4(7) of
Directive DI87-05, to withdraw the Cyprus Investment Firm authorisation with
Number 209/13 of Inveza Capital Ltd (LEI 21380072YOYRXZ8TKE88) ('the Company'),
due to the company's decision to expressly renounce it," CySEC wrote.
In the
past, the company went under the names NFX Capital Cy Ltd and Vinst Capital
Limited. Its operations offered investors mainly trading in stocks, bonds, ETFs
and early access to IPOs of popular companies.
Visiting
the Invez website, we see information that the company has suspended all its
operations as of 30 September 2022:
Statement on Inveza's website
"Please
note that as of 30 September 2022 Inveza Capital Ltd (ex NFX Capital CY Ltd)
will cease all activities and, therefore, existing clients trading or have open
balances with Inveza will be required to close their account and withdraw their
remaining balance," the statement on the company's website reads.

Wave of Renunciations in
CySEC?
The Cypriot
regulator, on 5 December, decided to suspend the license of another authorized
entity, F1Markets Ltd, which also surrendered its authorization with immediate
effect. Interestingly, the decision to cancel F1Markets' and Inveza's licenses
were undertaken on the same day. However, CySEC informed about their current
status in a separate announcement with a one-week gap between each.
F1Markets
was the operator of several different FX and CFD brands, including Investous.
It had four internet domains registered with the Cypriot regulator. According
to the broker's website, it suspended its operations in May last year.
Although CySEC
licensed F1Markets, its activities were not without controversy. The UK FCA
found that the entity had promoted its services in the UK using fake celebrity
endorsements. As a result, Cyprus suspended the company's license for a month.
Then, in
August last year, the company agreed to pay €150,000 for several potential
breaches of the licensing regulations.
CySEC has warned
retail investors twice in recent weeks about unlicensed trading firms.
February's warning concerned the activity of an unregulated cryptocurrency
company, IMS Crypto. According to the Cypriot regulator, the entity falsely
claims to possess a CySEC trading license, using the details of the authorized
company.
An earlier
warning was published at the end of January concerning five unregulated FX
and CFD trading platforms. The illegal platforms were metexo.com,
inforexeu.com, et-fx.com, nbimarkets.com and emporiumcapital.ltd. Currently,
only the inforexeu.com website has not been responding, while the others continue to
encourage investment.

The trades that taught me the most aren't the ones that worked. They're the ones that didn't — or the ones I almost caught and didn't have the nerve to ride. In this session, I'll tell you about the Brexit miss, the SNB shocker that nearly handed me a 5400% return, the BoJ surprise that punched me in the gut, and a few wins along the way. Each story carries a lesson, but the lessons aren't the point. Everyone who trades long enough collects a portfolio of moments like these; what separates the people who stay in the game is what they do with them.

Most market post-mortems describe what happened to prices. Few describe what happened in the trading room while the position was open: the entry conviction, the moments that tested it, and the exit decision that closed the book.
This session brings one seasoned trader to the stage for an unfiltered account of the position that still defines how they think about markets.
Attendees will walk away with:
-A first-hand account of how a conviction trade is built, from thesis and entry through position management and exit
-Understanding of what turns a market observation into a live position, and what holds it when conditions shift
-Insight into how timing, execution quality, and market structure shaped the final result
-Perspective on what the trade revealed about edge, risk tolerance, and when to hold through a position moving against you
-Clarity on what separates a well-built trade from a well-timed one

As crypto and CFD trading continue to expand across Africa, access to advanced tools and market insights remains uneven. This session explores how AI and blockchain can bridge that gap by empowering informal traders and underserved communities to participate more effectively in digital financial markets. The discussion will focus on practical applications of technology to improve accessibility, education, and investment outcomes in both formal and informal sectors.
In this discussion, we will explore:
-The role of AI in democratizing access to trading tools, insights, and strategy development
-How crypto and blockchain can enable broader participation beyond traditional financial systems
-Addressing access barriers: infrastructure, education, and affordability in underserved communities
-Opportunities for brokers and platforms to tap into the informal trading economy
