FSA withdraws licence of CFI Financial from operating in capital market sector

21 Sep 2025 FSA revokes CFI Financial's capital market licence

Muscat – The Financial Services Authority has issued an administrative decision to withdraw the license of CFI Financial LLC from operating in the capital market sector and to remove it from the register of companies authorised to operate in this field.

The decision was issued as the company failed to comply with Article (34/A) of the Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism Law. In addition, the company exceeded the scope of its licence by engaging in the marketing of non-Omani securities without obtaining the necessary authorisation, which constitutes a violation of Article (139) of the Executive Regulations of the Capital Market Law read in conjunction with Article (3) of the Securities Law. The Authority affirmed that this decision reflects its commitment to protecting the integrity and fairness of the financial markets, ensuring that all licensed institutions operating in the capital market comply with the applicable legal and regulatory standards and safeguarding the public interest.

The decision came into effect on September 18, 2025.
