Warning concerning the website of a so-called Luxembourg Futures Commodities Options Trading Authority and the activities of an entity named Luxembourg Futures Commodities Options Exchange

The Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF) warns the public of the website www.lfcota.org of the allegedly named “Luxembourg Futures Commodities Options Trading Authority”, which purports to be Luxembourg’s regulatory authority for futures and options markets. Such an authority does not exist in Luxembourg.

The CSSF also warns the public of the activities of an entity named Luxembourg Futures Commodities Options Exchange, which claims to be located at 104, Boulevard Royal, L-2449 Luxembourg (website: www.lfcoex.lu) and to be supervised by the aforementioned so-called authority.

The CSSF informs the public that Luxembourg Futures Commodities Options Exchange has not been granted the required authorisation to offer financial services in or from Luxembourg.
