The Regulator
About the Financial Services Commission
The integrated regulator for non-bank financial services and global business in Mauritius.
The FSC licenses and supervises investment dealers, fund managers, insurers and other financial-services firms operating from Mauritius. Licensed firms must meet ongoing requirements on capital, conduct, client money, anti-money-laundering and reporting, and are subject to inspection and enforcement.
Kudo Trade (Mauritius) Ltd holds an Investment Dealer licence. This is the licence that permits a firm to deal in securities and derivatives, including CFDs, on behalf of clients. It is the licence under which your account is opened, your deposits are held and your trades are executed.
Whether you found Kudo directly or were introduced through our UAE entity, your client agreement is with Kudo Trade (Mauritius) Ltd and this licence governs that relationship.
