This provider is not authorised to conduct banking services in Austria that require a licence and therefore not authorised to conclude money-lending agreements and to extend monetary loans (lending business).

Anyone providing banking services, and financial and securities services in Austria, requires the necessary authorisation or licence to do so from the Austrian Financial Market Authority (FMA). Some undertakings offer such services without holding the necessary authorisation.
