The Financial Services Commission (FSC) has issued an advisory, cautioning members of the public against investing in an unlicensed entity which has been seeking clients.

In the advisory, released on Thursday evening, the FSC cautioned potential investors about solicitations by International Financial Services Limited.

The Commission said the entity is not licensed to sell securities or conduct insurance business in Jamaica.

According to the FSC, International Financial Services has printed and circulated flyers, purporting that it is licensed to solicit securities business and has approached members of the public.

The FSC says members of the public should verify the registration of any entity or individual offering an investment opportunity or insurance business by checking the Commission’s website.
