New database compiles 299 regulator warnings on scam investment firms
Original: New: search 299 regulator warnings about fake, unlicensed and clone investment firms, from 30 regulators including the F
A new searchable tool lets investors check 299 regulator warnings about fake, unlicensed and clone investment firms, drawn from 30 regulators including the UK's FCA, Australia's ASIC, Germany's BaFin and Switzerland's FINMA. Users can search a firm's name or website, with each entry linking to the official notice. The database is updated daily and offers an RSS feed.
Why now: Investment fraud and clone-firm scams are widespread, and a free tool aggregating official regulator warnings is genuinely useful for people checking brokers before investing.
