CFDs in Portugal

Local licence required

Brokers need MiFID II authorisation from an EEA regulator; firms authorised elsewhere in the EEA may serve residents under the European passport. CMVM Regulation 5/2019 restricts the marketing, distribution and sale of CFDs to retail investors in Portugal.

Regulator sources (2)

“Restricts the marketing, distribution and sale of contracts for differences and prohibits the marketing, distribution and sale of binary option”

“investment firms authorised by Bafin may establish a branch, make use of tied agents or provide investment services on a cross-border basis”

CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.
