CFI Financial Secures Colombian Licence to Establish Bogotá Representative Office

CFI Financial Group has secured regulatory authorisation from Colombia's Financial Superintendence (SFC) to establish a representative office in Bogotá, marking the latest expansion for the Dubai-based online trading firm.
 

The licence permits CFI to conduct market awareness and promotional activities for approved products within Colombia's regulatory framework. The Bogotá office will provide Colombian clients with direct access to global markets through the company's trading platforms and educational resources.

"Colombia represents a strategic milestone in our global expansion and reflects our commitment to operating closer to the markets where our clients are. This authorisation enables us to deliver localised products, stronger support, and a more connected experience, all while upholding the highest regulatory and transparency standards."

The Colombian expansion follows CFI's recent market entries across South Africa, Azerbaijan, and Bahrain as part of its Latin American growth strategy.
