The AMF issued a warning on October 22, 2026, regarding unregulated actors offering investments in the foreign exchange market and derivatives on crypto-assets without proper authorization. The warning emphasizes the risks associated with engaging with these entities.

The warning relies on the provisions of the MiCA regulation, which governs the authorization of crypto-asset service providers and related financial services.

The warning applies to unregulated firms involved in Forex and crypto-derivative investments, specifically targeting entities that are not authorized by the AMF.

The AMF did not specify a deadline for compliance or any transitional period for the affected entities.
