What the FSC (MU) licence means
Our records show that, Hantec Markets 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 Hantec Markets 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.
Hantec Markets is also matched to licences from ASIC and FCA. ASIC and FCA are rated higher than the FSC (MU) in our methodology, so if you are eligible for those entities you may get stronger protection.
