The Financial Sector Conduct Authority<\/a> (FSCA) warns the public to be cautious and
vigilant when dealing with BINANCE GROUP as they are not authorised to give any
financial advice or render any intermediary services in terms of the Financial Advisory
and Intermediary Services Act, 2002 (FAIS Act) in South Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The FSCA received information that BINANCE<\/a> GROUP, an international company
situated in the Seychelles which has a telegram group that members of the South African
public can join to gain access to their cryptocurrency exchange platform. The FSCA
would like caution that in addition to this entity not being authorised to provide any
financial services or business, crypto-related investments are currently not regulated by
the FSCA or any other body in South Africa. As a result, if something goes wrong, you\u2019re
unlikely to get your money back and will have no recourse against anyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Members of the public should always check that an entity or individual is registered with
the FSCA to provide Financial Advisory & Intermediary Services and what category of
advice it is that the entity is registered to provide. There are instances where persons are
registered to provide basic advisory services for a low-risk product and then offer services
of a far more complex and risky nature. The FSCA again reminds consumers who wish to
conduct financial services with an institution or person to check beforehand with the
FSCA on either the toll free number (0800 110 443) or on the website www.fsca.co.za as
to whether or not such institution or person is authorised to render financial services, and
in particular which financial products they are licensed for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
