About Autorité des Marchés Financiers

The Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) is the independent public authority responsible for supervising and regulating the financial markets in France.

The AMF was established in 2003 and has a mission to increase trust in the economic system, protect investors, ensure markets operate fairly and transparently, and protect savings. The independence of the AMF - legal, financial, and operational - is crucial for making public interest decisions free from external constraints.

The AMF is a regulator and protector, monitoring financial products, market infrastructures, listed companies, investment firms, and providers of digital assets. The aim is to ensure that all contributors to the economic marketplace act responsibly and that investors have sufficient information to make informed decisions.
