Kenyans warned against online foreign exchange without licence
The Capital Markets Authority (CMA) has warned Kenyans against online foreign exchange trading through unlicensed entities, saying they risked losing their investments.
Paul Muthaura, CMA Chief Executive, said he observed several individuals and entities carrying on or purporting to carry on the business of an online foreign exchange broker or a money manager without the relevant licence by the Authority.
CMA said it planned to take appropriate action against any persons illegally conducting online foreign exchange trade. It asked anyone affected by the activity to report to the CMA.
It said all online foreign exchange brokers or money managers not licensed by the Authority should cease trading immediately.
