What is FSA?

FSA is the abbreviation used for the Seychelles financial regulator, and it turns up in the regulatory lists of several providers. Where it appears alongside other regulators, it is the entry tied to a Seychelles entity rather than the provider's home market.

Alchemy Markets lists FSA, FCA and MFSA and its Seychelles licence reference is SD136. BlueSuisse Markets Ltd lists Financial Services Authority (FSA) Seychelles, Errante lists CySEC and FSA (Seychelles), which pairs CySEC with the FSA in Seychelles, and Exness lists FCA, CySEC and FSA Seychelles across the FCA, CySEC, the Seychelles FSA and the FSCA.

Several entries mean several regulated entities, so match the reference to the account you are opening before you decide it is the protection you had in mind.
