Falcon Labs, which is a cryptocurrency prime brokerage firm situated in the Seychelles, has been sanctioned by the CFTC for violating the rules in the American market.
A federal court in the United States decided that Falcon Labs was the one to be blamed for the fact that unregistered people had access to the platforms where they could trade crypto derivatives. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) discovered that from October 2021 to March 2023, Falcon Labs was a middleman for American consumers who wanted to trade digital asset futures but didn’t want to register.
It was easy to see that Falcon Labs was indeed the main account holder of these companies, so they continued to facilitate the transactions. The people in question were sub-accounts that were settled individually and quickly without any sort of identification.
With the help of its clients’ transfers in the virtual asset derivatives, Falcon Company was able to make a net fee of almost 1,179,000 USD, all due to this illegal activity. Thus, the CFTC is severely punishing the said company for this violation. To prevent the fines and disgorgement, which would be 1,768,512 million dollars, Falcon Labs is mandated to stop these unregistered operations immediately, according to the sentence.
Director of Enforcement Ian McGinley of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) stressed the organization’s resolute stance on safeguarding the integrity of derivatives markets and making sure that anybody involved in unregistered digital asset services face prosecution. The regulatory compliance system and response system of Falcon Labs are vital to the company’s performance in the healthcare sector.
As a preventative measure, Falcon Labs fortified its customer Identity Management controls. While this could demonstrate company’s dedication to following regulations, it may not be enough to shield the company from any legal repercussions stemming from its previous wrongdoings.
