What the FSC (MU) licence means
According to our records, Alpari holds a licence from the Financial Services Commission, Mauritius (FSC (MU)), the financial regulator for Mauritius. We classify the FSC (MU) as tier 3 — moderate regulation. Established offshore or emerging-market regulators with capital and reporting requirements but limited retail protection.
For Alpari clients whose account is held by its FSC (MU)-regulated entity, the key protections are: compensation — No compensation scheme; retail leverage — No statutory cap; negative balance protection — not a regulatory requirement (may be offered contractually); client money — Client money segregation required for Investment Dealers. Disputes can be taken to Office of the Ombudsperson for Financial Services.
Alpari is also matched to licences from FSA (Seychelles) and MISA.
