CNPF draws attention to the fact that Pelliron is not registered in the Register of persons authorized and licensed on the capital market; therefore, it does not hold a permit for carrying out activity on the capital market of the Republic of Moldova, according to Law No. 171/2012 on the capital market. At the same time, the country in which it is authorized on the capital market was not identified.

It is also indicated that in the petitions received by CNPF, investors invoked Pelliron's collaboration with the entities SRL „DOUBLE CASE” and SRL „DOUBLE CASE CONSULTING-GROUP”.

CNPF recommends that, including if you benefit from training services in the field of investments, you avoid being directed to unauthorized platforms or brokers.
