BaFin investigates hashtrade.pro, equity-broker.co and prgntrade.co

BaFIN launches investigation into the company Castan Holdings LTD. According with section 37 (4) German Banking Act (KWG), Xertz Consulting Inc has not been granted authorisation to conduct banking business or provide financial services.

According to German watchdog Bafin, the information provided on the websites operated by Xertz Consulting Inc., hashtrade.pro, equity-broker.co and prgntrade.co, and the information and documents available to BaFin give reasonable grounds to suspect that the company is conducting banking business and/or providing financial services in Germany without the required authorisation.

Other evidence suggests that the company is also responsible for the password-protected website equity-broker.cc. In the past, Xertz Consulting Inc. has also appeared in connection with the sites paragon-finance.io, paragon-finance.cc and hashtrade.io. The website paragon-finance.io provided investors with two false addresses in Switzerland for the provider.

Details of the unauthorized firm - Xertz Consulting Inc.

Website: hashtrade.pro, equity-broker.co and prgntrade.co

Company Name: Xertz Consulting Inc.

How To Protect Yourself From Scams 

Brokerswatch recommends investing only with brokers that are regulated by reputable authority.

Reputable regulatory authority provides additional protection to investors by ensuring that financial firms apply proper standards and rules. Additionally, if the broker tries to cheat you out of your money, it is the regulator’s job to force the financial firm to compensate you for any wrongdoing.
