New Delhi: The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has updated the Alert List of unauthorised forex trading platforms. RBI on Wednesday added 8 entities/platforms/websites to the Alert List of unauthorised forex trading platforms, thus taking the total count to 56.
In September last year, the central bank came out with an ‘Alert List’ of unauthorised forex trading platforms containing the names of 34 entities. The list was updated in February also. Now there are 56 entries in the list.
The Alert List contains names of entities which are neither authorised to deal in forex under the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999 (FEMA) nor authorised to operate electronic trading platform (ETP) for forex transactions under the Electronic Trading Platforms (Reserve Bank) Directions, 2018.
The Alert List also contains names of entities/platforms/websites which appear to be promoting unauthorised entities/ETPs, including through advertisements of such unauthorised entities or claiming to be providing training/advisory services.
