The Gibraltar Financial Services Commission regulates the financial services industry in Gibraltar.

Our aim is to protect consumers, enhance the reputation of Gibraltar as a quality financial services center and promote good business.

The GFSC supervises a broad range of firms including auditors, banks, company managers, e-money institutions, professional trustees, payment services providers, funds and fund service providers, insurance companies, managers and intermediaries, investment firms, and insolvency practitioners.

Firms that wish to do business in or from within Gibraltar must meet our standards and criteria both at application stage and on an on-going basis.

Our supervisory work focuses primarily on:

• the way firms are operated and governed;
• the identification of risks to consumers;
• the reputation of the jurisdiction more generally.
