Global broker ActivTrades has obtained a licence from the Financial Services Commission (FSC) in Mauritius, bringing its total regulatory jurisdictions to five as it continues its international growth strategy.
The addition of Mauritius complements the broker's existing regulatory authorisations from the UK's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), Portugal's Securities Market Commission (CMVM), Brazil's Central Bank (Bacen), and the Securities Commission of the Bahamas (SCB).
