Public Statement 11 of 2023 - INDEXCRPTO.LTD

Summary

This is a public warning notice issued by the British Virgin Islands Financial Services Commission on 12 July 2023, alerting the public that INDEXCRPTO.LTD is not a BVI company and has never been licensed or regulated to conduct investment business or any other financial services business in or from within the BVI.

• Nature of concern: INDEXCRPTO.LTD is circulating a forged investment business licence and falsely claims to be authorised by the Commission for Dealing in Investments as Principal and Arranging Deals in Investments.
• Public advice: Members of the public are advised to exercise extreme caution if solicited to conduct business with INDEXCRPTO.LTD.
• Information request: The public is invited to provide the Commission with information about questionable entities or improper activities linked to this or similar entities.
• Legal basis: The statement is issued pursuant to Section 37A of the Financial Services Commission Act, 2001.

The notice is informational and enforcement-related rather than regulatory in nature; it does not create ongoing compliance obligations for licensed entities but serves to protect consumers and the integrity of the BVI financial services sector from an unlicensed, fraudulent operator.

Applies to

general public, potential customers or creditors of INDEXCRPTO.LTD
