Retail Forex Broker FXFINPRO has CIF License Suspended by CySEC

The Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission ('CySEC') announces that the authorisation of the Cyprus Investment Firm 'PFX Financial Professionals Ltd' ('the Company'), with number 193/13, is suspended, pursuant to section 26(2) of the Investment Services and Activities and Regulated Markets Law of 2007, as in force ('the Law'), as there are suspicions of an alleged violation of:

1. Section 28(1) of the Law, due to the Company's possible non compliance at all times with the condition of its authorization provided for in section 12(1) (Persons who effectively direct the business of a CIF), 18(2)(a), (f) and (j) (Organisational requirements) of the Law,


2. Section 36(1) of the Law (Conduct of business obligations when providing investment services to clients).

The above decision was reached due to the fact that the aforementioned alleged violations may possibly endanger the Company's clients' interests and generally the smooth operation of the capital market.

Within one month from the date of CySEC's Decision, PFX Financial Professional Ltd has to comply with the aforementioned provisions.
