On June 7, it was reported that the Monetary Authority of Singapore, in conjunction with the police, plans to block the websites of unlicensed trading platforms Octa and XM starting from June 20. After the blocking takes effect, users will not be able to access them through Singapore internet service providers.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore and the police pointed out in a joint statement that the two platforms provided and promoted trading services to local residents without obtaining the necessary licenses and qualifications, such as leveraged forex trading, commodities, indices, and stocks, in violation of the Securities and Futures Act of 2001. Both platforms also engage in cryptocurrency trading, and most unregulated online trading platforms are based overseas, making it difficult to verify their operational credibility and posing a high risk of fraud. It is reported that Octa is operated by Octa Markets and Uni Fin Invest, while XM is operated by XM Global.
