The Autorité des marchés financiers, known as the AMF of France, has issued a warning of sixty nine binary options websites, adding nine new websites to the list and while removing four websites since its last warning.
The financial market regulatory agency in France known as the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF), has recently announced an updated list of Binary options websites that it deemed unauthorized to offer investment services within its jurisdiction , according to an official press release by the regulator dated January 13, 2014.
Comparing with the last time the AFM published a list warning of binary option firms, in September 2013, there were sixty-four firms at the time, and in the new updated list there were nine new firms added, however there were also four firms removed from the new list (no longer being warned about), therefore the total number is now sixty-nine. The four firms no longer on the warning list include: 24option.com, euoptions.com, ezbinary.com, and zoneoptions.com. The January updated list was noted as dynamic and subject to changes and not meant to be exhaustive.
Below is a copy of the updated list, excerpted from the AMF website, describing the warning to investors about aggressive advertising campaigns on the internet, regarding binary options trading which offer very high returns in a very short time, as per the official text unofficially translated from French to English. The new list replaces the one published on September 12, 2013, and includes the following nine new additions bolded in black font, bringing the total to sixty-nine websites:
www.01broker.com
www.4xp.com

Paytiko CEO Razi Salih on Why Payment Orchestration is a MUST-HAVE for Brokers in 2026
At iFX Expo Dubai, Finance Magnates spoke with Razi Salih, CEO at Paytiko, about the evolution of the payments ecosystem and why payment orchestration has shifted from an option to a necessity for brokers, prop firms, and exchanges.
Mr. Salih explains how global expansion, the need for deep localisation, and the sheer number of new payment methods, from instant banking to stablecoins, are driving this critical infrastructure shift.

Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav: Solving Data Fragmentation & Lag for Brokers & Prop Firms
Altima CTO Sunil Jadhav sits down with Finance Magnates to discuss the core technology challenges facing CFD brokers and proprietary trading firms today.
Jadhav explains how the industry's reliance on batch processing and fragmented systems (where CRMs, risk tools, and trading platforms operate with separate 'sources of truth') leads to delayed data and inconsistent operational decisions. He argues that real-time event processing is essential for managing fast-moving trading activity and risk.
Learn how Altima's unified, event-driven architecture, connecting Altima CRM, Altima Prop, IB systems, and risk management through a single backbone, is designed to provide synchronous data and better operational coordination for modern brokerage and prop firm stacks.
Key Topics:
- Broker and Prop Firm Data Challenges
- The problem of delayed data processing (batch processing vs. real-time events)
- Fragmented systems and conflicting data sources
- Altima's unified, event-driven solution architecture
- The concept of a "risk-aware CRM"
- Built-in risk management in Altima Prop
