About VFSC

Nestled in the South Pacific Ocean, the island nation of the Republic of Vanuatu is home to slightly over 300,000 people. In December 1993, the Vanuatu Financial Services Commission (VFSC) was founded as an offshore regulatory body.

Vanuatu is a hub for broker and investment scams. A large number of them register as “regulated financial companies” with the VFSC. Nevertheless, neither the EU nor any other significant regulatory body recognizes the VFSC licence.

In the eyes of authorities in North America and Europe, the VFSC is not truly a regulator. Getting a licence to provide financial services is not too difficult. To attract offshore clients, some brokers and financial businesses pair their VFSC licences with EU (and frequently CySEC) permits.
