It issued a warning to CFD brokers recently, ordering them to improve practices or face enforcement actions, which may include monetary fines and even suspension or withdrawal of licenses in extreme cases.
Additionally, the regulator is vigilant against non-compliance on the part of brokerages. It settled with several brokers for possible violations of compliance rules. In July alone, it settled with Triangleview Investments, BCM Begin Capital Markets, and Forex TB.
