FCA Issues Warning against
Christmas Loan Fee Fraud
The
Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is alerting the public of the heightened risk
of loan fee fraud during Christmas. With research showing significant financial
pressure on UK households, especially parents, the FCA noted that many may be
vulnerable to fraudsters offering loans for Christmas expenses.
Almost half
of UK adults feel compelled to spend beyond their means, and over a quarter of
parents with young children are considering borrowing money for Christmas. The
FCA's campaign includes a three-step checklist to help consumers avoid falling
victim to loan fee fraud, which typically results in significant financial
loss.
BMLL Completes China
Equity Data Offering
BMLL, a provider
of historical Level 3 data and analytics, announced the completion of its China
data offering, integrating data from Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Hong Kong
exchanges. This marks a significant step in BMLL's APAC equities and ETF data
coverage expansion.
With the
inclusion of data from exchanges like CBOE Japan, Japannext, Singapore
Exchange, and others in the APAC region, BMLL is positioned to significantly
aid both buy-side and sell-side firms in improving trading decisions.
AAT Upholds ASIC's Ban on
Financial Adviser
The
Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) has upheld the Australian Securities and
Investments Commission's (ASIC) decision to ban Victorian financial adviser
Pamela Anderson from providing financial services for two years.
The ban
follows ASIC's findings that Anderson failed to act in her clients' best
interests, prioritized her own interests, provided non-compliant advice, and
advised clients to invest in a high-risk fund operated by an entity related to
her former licensee. The AAT's decision underscores the advisor's independent
obligations and the significant impact of her misconduct toward clients.
Instinet Fined for
Compliance Failures in Crossing System
Instinet
Australia Pty Ltd has paid a penalty of $670,500 for failing to comply with
market integrity rules. The infringement notice issued by the Markets
Disciplinary Panel (MDP) highlighted Instinet's shortcomings in providing
meaningful price improvement for off-market client transactions, disclosing
necessary information about its crossing system, and accurately reporting
regulatory data.
The
violations primarily concerned the incorrect referencing of the National Best
Bid and Offer in its BLX crossing system, affecting numerous trades. The MDP
criticized Instinet's negligent approach to compliance, emphasizing the need
for ongoing system reviews and updates to protect client interests.
GSTechnologies Acquires
Majority Stake in Semnet Pte Ltd
GSTechnologies
Ltd, a fintech company, announced the acquisition of a stake of 66.67% in Semnet
Pte Ltd, a Singapore-based cybersecurity firm, for a total of US$1.8 million.
This acquisition is pivotal for GST as it strengthens its GS Money and B2B
Neobanking operations.
Semnet's
cybersecurity expertise is deemed crucial for GST's growing global Neobank
ecosystem and will support client onboarding and operational activities,
including the provision of white-label software solutions. Semnet will continue
catering to its existing client base, adding a profitable revenue stream for
GST.
SFC Warns of Suspected
Virtual Asset-Related Frauds
The
Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) has issued a warning about suspected
virtual asset-related frauds involving HongKongDAO and BitCuped. The SFC
suspects HongKongDAO of disseminating misleading information about its services
and falsely claiming regulatory compliance. Similarly, BitCuped has been
flagged for falsely associating itself with prominent individuals.
The SFC's
actions, including blocking website access and issuing cease and desist
letters, reflect its commitment to protecting investors from potential fraud
in the virtual asset space.

Damian's adventure with financial markets began at the Cracow University of Economics, where he obtained his MA in finance and accounting. Starting from the retail trader perspective, he collaborated with brokerage houses and financial portals in Poland as an independent editor and content manager. His adventure with Finance Magnates began in 2016, where he is working as a business intelligence analyst.
In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.

In this conversation, we speak with Aydin Bonabi, CEO and co-founder of Surveill, a firm focused on fraud detection and AI-driven compliance tools for financial institutions.
We start with Aydin’s view of the Summit and the challenges brokers face as fraud tactics grow more complex. He explains how firms can stay ahead through real-time signals, data patterns, and early-stage detection.
We also talk about AI training and why compliance teams often struggle to keep models accurate, fair, and aligned with regulatory expectations. Aydin breaks down what “good” AI training looks like inside a financial environment, including the importance of clean data, domain expertise, and human oversight.
He closes with a clear message: fraud is scaling, and so must the tools that stop it.

Interview with Jas Shah
Builder | Adviser | Fintech Writer | Product Strategist
In this episode, Jonathan Fine sat down with Jas Shah, one of the most thoughtful voices in global fintech. Known for his work across advisory, product, stablecoins, and his widely read writing, Jas brings a rare combination of industry insight and plain-spoken clarity.
We talk about his first impression of the Summit, the projects that keep him busy today, and how they connect to the stablecoin panel he joined. Jas shares his view on the link between fintech, wealthtech and retail brokers, especially as firms like Revolut, eToro and Trading212 blur long-standing lines in the market.
We also explore what stablecoin adoption might look like for retail investment platforms, including a few product and UX angles that are not obvious at first glance.
To close, Jas explains how he thinks about writing, and how he approaches “shipping” pieces that spark debate across the industry.
