Country Guides to Trading Forex

• Forex Trading in Kenya – Locally registered brokers are regulated by the Capital Markets Authority in Kenya, but currently, only two brokers have been licensed. Kenyan’s are free to trade with internationally regulated brokers, so this is the comprehensive list.
• Forex Trading in Tanzania – Local Forex brokers are not yet regulated by the Bank of Tanzania, but the BOT recently launched an assessment survey of the local market. Based on the Tanzanian government’s track record of swift and decisive enforcement, we expect this to result in a local regulatory regime for Forex CFDs sooner rather than later.
• Forex Trading in Rwanda – Forex trading in Rwanda is legal but there is no local regulation to speak of and restrictions on trading with the Rwandan Franc. The National Bank of Rwanda is seen as relatively progressive and has made inquiries into launching a government-backed cryptocurrency, so we expect Forex trading to become regulated in the near future.
