Regulation & Oversight

Integrity. Transparency. Accountability.

At Blackwave, investor protection and regulatory compliance are not slogans — they are the foundation of our operations.
Our managed-account services operate under two regulated entities, providing clients with robust oversight and full segregation of funds.


Bahamas — Securities Commission of The Bahamas (SCB)

Our managed-account services are provided through Blackwell Global Investments Ltd, a Bahamian-registered company headquartered at 201 Church Street, Sandyport, Nassau.
Blackwell Global Investments is authorised and regulated by the Securities Commission of The Bahamas (SCB) — certificate number SIA-F215.

The SCB is the statutory regulator for the securities industry in The Bahamas. It supervises brokers and investment firms to ensure market integrity, client fund protection, and adherence to international best practices.
Operating under the SCB’s framework ensures a strong combination of stability, transparency, and operational accountability.


Seychelles — Financial Services Authority (FSA)

Blackwave also trades through Raw Trading Ltd (trading as IC Markets Global), authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority (FSA) of Seychelles under licence number SD018.

The FSA serves as the independent regulator for Seychelles’ non-bank financial services industry, enforcing strict rules on risk management, client-fund segregation, and anti-money-laundering compliance.
This additional layer of oversight underscores Blackwave’s commitment to transparency and investor protection across jurisdictions.
