The UK's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has warned Capitalswise and GreatchainFX that they may be offering financial services or products in the UK without authorisation from the FCA and that investors should be cautious about dealing with them. Details are as follows:
Unauthorized company - Capitalswise
Address: 122 Leadenhall Street, London, EC3V 4AB

The FCA reminded investors to be cautious about the financial activities of blacklisted companies and advised investors to only deal with financial firms that have been authorised by the FCA. If you want to know if a company is authorised by the FCA, you can check the Financial Services Register. The register contains a "white list" of regulated companies and individuals.
If you deal with an unauthorised company, you will not be able to access the Financial Ombudsman Service or the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS), in which case investors will be unlikely to get their money back if something goes wrong.
