AB has one licence on record with Wikilix, issued by one authority across one jurisdiction. One of them was issued by a tier-1 or tier-2 authority — the regimes with the strictest capital, reporting and client-money rules. None has yet been located on an issuing authority’s own register, so every entry here should be read as claimed rather than confirmed.
