The narrative

In Dec 2015, the Cyprus regulator granted a CIF license to Starfish FX, which was never activated. In March 2016, CySEC warned that Starfish Markets (CY) Ltd d/b/a Starfish FX would provide financial services without authorization. In Sept 2016, the license was renounced. The beneficial owners of Starfish FX have been Soh Kai Jun and Choon Keit Wong.

In April 2017, CySEC granted a CIF license to Broctagon Prime Ltd d/b/a Broctagon Prime. The company is controlled by Soh Kai Jun and Choon Keit Wong via Broctagon Fintech Group in Singapore. Broctagon Prime Markets Limited (Broctagon Labuan) is regulated by the offshore regulator Labuan Financial Services Authority (Labuan FSA) as a money-broking business.

Broctagon Prime is the liquidity and service provider to at least six CYSEC-regulated entities. In its Key Information Document, for example, GWG (Cyprus) Limited informs that the client’s orders are executed by Broctagon Prime Ltd. They are automatically transmitted for execution to Broctagon Prime Ltd when GWG receives them. Ausprime, RyNat, Excelsius Prime, and Errante are also cooperating with Broctagon Prime for order execution and/or liquidity provision.

  1. HI I KNOW THIS NAME FROM SINGAPORE BIG CROOK. THEY USE CYPRUS LICENSE TO PROMOTE THEIR COMPANY BROCTAGON.COM AND CYSEC, THE CYPRUS REGULATOR IS SLEEPING.

    THE PERSON ABOVE,SOH, IS GOING AROUND WITH SEVERAL NAMES AS SOH KAI JUN, BENJAMIN SOH, GUANXIANG SOH, WHICH USE IN HIS UNLICENSED BUSINESS starfishfx.com, [email protected] WHICH I HAD THE WORST EXPERIENCE.

  2. Worth mentioning that Helenic bank is accommodating all their dodgy business whilst they continue closing companies relating to the financial industry.
    But it seems we are nor connected with Helenic bank employees from Larnaca and we dont pay them 8k commission to keep eyes shut.
    SHAME!!!
