Forex in Russia: Is it possible to conclude a contract with a foreign dealer?

However, the question arises as to how Russian legislation will apply to foreign companies and their Russian clients.

If a foreign dealer is going to work in the Russian market, then having a license of a foreign regulator, its duties include registration of its representative office or branch on the territory of the Russian Federation and obtaining the appropriate accreditation from the Central Bank.

При этом ни представительство, ни филиал иностранного -дилера не вправе оказывать финансовые услуги на территории РФ. В рамках закона «О » термин -дилер вообще не применим к иностранным компаниям.

However, clients of a foreign company are entitled to conclude an agreement with it on the provision of financial and other services on the market outside Russia.

    1. No monopolization, but only licensing and the requirement to comply with Russian laws. Ensuring control and revocation of licenses in case of violations, and ensuring the protection of the rights of both clients and forex-dealers. That's all. Now there is no such thing.

  1. If a client who has concluded a contract with a foreign (non-Russian registered) company is located on the territory of the Russian Federation, it follows that this company provides services in the Russian Federation and must have a license or accreditation from the Russian authorities. The right of a foreign company to provide services abroad to Russian (by citizenship) clients is regulated not by Russian legislation, but by the laws of the country where the company operates.
    And such an opportunity is created when a citizen of the Russian Federation is outside its borders. Exactly so, there can be no other interpretation. The author of the article has a mess in his head.
