What the CSSF licence means
Based on our licence database, WH SelfInvest holds a licence from the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF), the financial regulator for Luxembourg. We classify the CSSF as tier 2 — strong regulation. Credible regulators with real rulebooks, but fewer safeguards than tier 1 (e.g. no compensation scheme or looser leverage rules).
For WH SelfInvest clients whose account is held by its CSSF-regulated entity, the key protections are: compensation — SIIL — up to €20,000; retail leverage — 30:1 on major FX pairs (ESMA rules); negative balance protection — mandatory for retail clients; client money — MiFID II client asset rules. Disputes can be taken to CSSF out-of-court complaint resolution.
