Regulatory Crackdown: OSC Takes Action Against Traders Global Group Inc.
OSC’s Vigorous Response
The Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) has initiated forceful measures against Traders Global Group Inc., also known as myforexfunds.com, and Muhammad Murtuza Kazmi, marking a pivotal moment in regulatory oversight.
An investigation has been launched into potential rule violations, leading to the issuance of a temporary cease trade order. This significant development underscores the OSC’s commitment to upholding regulatory standards and safeguarding investors’ interests.
Overview of the Investigation
Traders Global Group Inc. and Kazmi are under scrutiny for a range of suspected infractions, including allegations of deception, unauthorized trading activities, and illicit securities distribution.
Operating from Ontario, these entities are accused of operating without the requisite registration with the OSC, contravening provincial securities trading regulations.
Implications of the Cease Trade Order
The imposition of a temporary cease trade order represents a direct response to these concerns, effectively halting any further securities trading activities by both Traders Global Group Inc. and Kazmi. This decisive action underscores the OSC’s resolve to enforce compliance and protect investors’ rights.
Collaborative Efforts and Future Steps
In its pursuit of accountability, the OSC acknowledges the collaborative efforts of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). The CFTC has taken legal action by filing a complaint against Traders Global Group Inc. and a related corporation based in New Jersey, alongside Kazmi, in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey.
For Ontario residents who have interacted with Traders Global Group Inc. or Kazmi, the OSC extends an invitation to come forward. Individuals are urged to contact the OSC’s Inquiries and Contact Centre for guidance and assistance regarding their dealings with these entities.
