Abstract:OnEquity has secured a derivatives license from the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA), enabling the firm to operate as an OTC derivative provider in South Africa's financial market.
OnEquity has recently obtained a derivatives license from the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA), allowing the firm to serve as an Over-the-Counter (OTC) derivative provider with the capabilities of originating, issuing, selling, or making a market in OTC derivatives.
The decision to expand operations into South Africa is grounded in OnEquity's recognition of the favorable business climate and the progressive legal framework for international brokerage companies within the country.
To adhere to local regulations, OnEquity has appointed Enver Snyders, a seasoned professional with almost a decade of experience, particularly focused on business development and client management in South Africa, as its country manager. Enver assumed this role in October 2023.
Forex brokers operating in South Africa fall under the oversight of the Financial Sector Conduct Authority, responsible for approving firms operating within the jurisdiction. The FSCA issues licenses and has the authority to penalize companies that breach the guidelines of the nation's dual regulation system.
Concurrently, the regulatory body has experienced an increase in applications from cryptocurrency companies seeking operational licenses. While 138 proposals were submitted, 19 applications were withdrawn, primarily citing issues such as lack of experience and inadequate operational frameworks, as reported by local media.
South Africa is renowned for its robust and well-organized financial market, making it an appealing destination for brokers seeking strategic expansion. As one of the world's top ten capital markets with a diverse investor base, South Africa stands out for its market potential, notably avoiding the market saturation observed in other jurisdictions like Europe.
