Deposits and Withdrawals
OEXN supports deposits and withdrawals via bank transfer, credit/debit cards, and e-wallets such as Skrill and Neteller.
Risk Warnings
Companies registered with the Mauritius Financial Services Commission (FSC) and Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) have regulatory limitations.
Mauritius Financial Services Commission (FSC):
- Relaxed Regulation: FSC's regulation is relatively relaxed. Mauritius, as an offshore financial center, attracts many financial service companies seeking fewer regulatory restrictions. Although FSC has regulations and oversight mechanisms, these are less stringent compared to the primary financial markets in Europe and the USA. Some non-compliant or high-risk companies may exploit this, leading to less transparent operations and increased investor risk.
- Lower International Recognition: Mauritius, as an offshore financial center, has limited global reputation and influence. This may cause FSC-regulated companies to struggle to gain international investor trust in certain situations.
Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC):
- Over-Reliance on the EU Framework: Although CySEC's regulation is based on EU standards, it is sometimes criticized for not being strict enough in punishing violations. This may result in companies following minimum standards while attempting to evade stricter compliance requirements.
- Offshore Center Attribute: CySEC's regulation is less stringent compared to primary financial markets in Europe and the USA. Cyprus, as a tax-advantageous financial center, attracts companies seeking lower tax burdens and regulatory costs. Some companies may choose to register in Cyprus to avoid a stricter regulatory environment.
Conclusion
OEXN is an emerging CFD broker, holding both FSC and CySEC licenses. However, these licenses possess offshore center attributes with less stringent regulation. Additionally, some information on the broker’s website can be misleading.
Investors are advised to choose brokers with transparent information, strong regulation, and a good reputation to prevent unnecessary financial losses.
Currently, this broker is marked as "operating illegally" on Traderknows.
