Spain’s financial markets and services regulator CNMV has issued warnings against two forex brokers Traders Way and IGFinvestment. According to the public warning notice, these entities are not authorized to provide investment services or investment advice and auxiliary services, including foreign currency transactions in Spain.

The regulator maintains a register with investment companies that are authorized to operate in Spain.
