Reported as a scam / unregulated
Why Aztec Group is on the register
The Aztec Group purports to be regulated by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC). However, our investigation indicates a different reality. Upon examining the ASIC register, we found only two former AR licensees with names identical to the Aztec Group. Their licenses, however, have been revoked by the ASIC. Even if the two entities are associated with the forex brand, Aztec Group remained unlicensed as they have been ceased. As a result, Aztec Group is not currently under the regulation of the ASIC, as there are no existing records within the ASIC to support their claim of regulation. In essence, Aztec Group is not regulated by any governing body. Entrusting it with investors’ funds is highly risky, as there are no legal protections in place to safeguard the funds. Aztec Group appears to be a scam.
