The Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA) has issued a public warning about Malta Capital Management Limited (company registration C 51149), following reports of individuals posing as its representatives to offer investment opportunities.
Though the firm was previously licensed by the MFSA, its investment services licence was officially cancelled on 11th June 2020 due to regulatory deficiencies. Since that date, the company is no longer authorised to provide any financial or investment services in Malta.
The MFSA emphasises that the entity is not authorised to solicit investments or manage clients’ funds. It specifically advised caution when approached by anyone claiming affiliation with Malta Capital Management Limited, and to verify the legitimacy of any such offers before proceeding.
The regulator reminds consumers to:
- Confirm the identity and credentials of the individual or company offering financial services.
- Ensure the provider is listed in the MFSA Financial Services Register, which lists all authorised entities.
- Refrain from engaging in transactions unless the provider holds a valid licence from the MFSA or another recognised financial services regulator.
Anyone who has engaged with the entity or suspects fraud is advised to immediately stop all transactions and contact the MFSA to report the matter.
