Abstract:CySEC fines Forex24’s parent Lydya Financial €850 for late regulatory report, signaling tighter forex oversight and compliance action in Cyprus.

Forex broker Forex24, operated by Lydya Financial Ltd, has been fined again by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) for failing to meet mandatory reporting deadlines. The €850 penalty, imposed on 8 September and published on 24 October, followed the companys failure to file its 2024 Risk-Based Supervision Framework (RBSF-CIF) return under Circular C706.
This marks the second fine issued to Forex24‘s parent company in 2025. In August, CySEC imposed a €100 penalty for late submission of the first-quarter QST-CIF report under Circular C691. While the amounts are small, they highlight ongoing weaknesses in the company’s compliance and data management systems amid stricter regulatory scrutiny across Europe.
Lydya Financial, which operates Forex24 and Forex24 Global, is registered in Cyprus under number HE 334292 and licensed as CIF 300/16. Its Legal Entity Identifier (LEI 213800GJ47NI1547NH25) currently shows as lapsed, reflecting ongoing gaps in regulatory upkeep.

CySEC‘s risk-based regulatory model requires licensed brokers like Forex24 to file quarterly and annual data through the Transaction Reporting System (TRS). The RBSF-CIF report, introduced in 2021, helps assess brokers’ financial condition, leverage levels, and client exposure, forming a foundation for CySECs supervision strategy.
Under Circular C706, firms were required to submit 2024 data by late June 2025. CySEC confirmed that Lydya Financial missed this deadline, prompting the €850 fine. The earlier QST-CIF penalty stemmed from another missed submission in May.
Industry consultants in Nicosia note that CySEC uses small fines as preemptive measures to ensure brokers improve their internal compliance systems. Throughout 2025, CySEC also issued multiple circulars—C706, C718, and C730—emphasizing that late or invalid data submissions would result in published enforcement actions.
CySECs actions against Forex24 reflect a wider regulatory trend across the European forex industry. The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) has been pushing for more transparent and frequent reporting from retail trading platforms, increasing accountability standards.
For Forex24, consistent reporting is essential not only to maintain its CySEC license but also to preserve partnerships with liquidity providers and financial institutions. Repeated lapses can lead to enhanced supervision or on-site inspections.
The next key deadline for Forex24 is the Q3-2025 QST-CIF filing under Circular C730, due at the end of October. A timely submission could help restore regulatory confidence and strengthen the broker‘s compliance record in Cyprus’s competitive forex industry.
