About Financial Services Commission

The Financial Services Commission (FSC) is the sole independent statutory authority in Belize responsible for regulating the financial services sector.

The Commission operates under the International Financial Services Commission (IFSC), which was the initial name of the Commission under the IFSC Act.

It transitioned to the FSC due to the implementation of the restructured authority on January 1, 2022.

The Commission is self-funding, and the organization is guided by its principles, which are integrity, accountability, flexibility, and reliability.

 

Legislative Framework

The Commission derives its statutory powers from the Financial Services Commission Act, No. 8 of 2023, and from the Securities Industry Act of 2021.

The Commission administers the Securities Industry Act; therefore, it registers, supervises, and regulates the Belize stock exchange.
