Finding

Financial services provider licence FSP 47490 for the group's South African company, which the site names both Moneta Markets (Pty) Ltd and Moneta Markets South Africa (Pty) Ltd. It covers that company's South African business, not the Saint Lucia company behind monetamarkets.com. The FSCA's online FSP search was out of service at the time of writing, so the licence is confirmed on record but its category (intermediary or dealer) is not. Client protection: Moderate for clients of the South African company; none for clients of the Saint Lucia company.

FSCA is classed as an offshore regime. An offshore registration can be entirely legitimate, but it typically means lower capital requirements, no compensation scheme, and a complaint route that is harder to use from abroad.
