EBSI has 3 licences on record with Wikilix, issued by 2 authorities across one jurisdiction. 2 of them were issued by tier-1 or tier-2 authorities — 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.
One licence comes from an authority classed as offshore. An offshore regime can be a legitimate registration, but it typically carries lower capital requirements and no compensation scheme.
