How the Currency Hedger structure works
Clear separation between the customer-facing programme and the regulated infrastructure supporting applicable services.
Currency Hedger is the customer-facing white-label foreign exchange and international payments platform operated by Octalas Group Ltd, Ireland.
The regulated payment and money-service functionality is provided through the applicable GC Partners regulated entity. For relevant DIFC services, GC Partners (DIFC) Limited is authorised and regulated by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA).
For relevant UK payment services, Global Currency Exchange Network Ltd trading as GC Partners is authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority as an Authorised Payment Institution.
Currency Hedger therefore operates as a white-label programme supported by the regulatory permissions and infrastructure of the applicable GC Partners entity. Currency Hedger should not be described as itself being a DFSA-authorised or FCA-authorised payment institution.
The precise regulatory treatment of a service depends on the client, jurisdiction, product, transaction and regulated entity providing the service. GCC availability is therefore subject to applicable local laws and regulatory requirements.
