Banc De Binary is a binary options trading company headquartered in Cyprus and Israel which was enjoined by a U.S. Federal Court in 2013 from offering securities for sale or acting as a broker-dealer. Investors using its service bet on future prices of gold, oil, stocks or market indexes and are paid a return if their predictions come true within a set amount of time. The company was founded on January 15, 2009.

Regulation

In June 2013 the Securities Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission filed lawsuits against Banc De Binary as part of an increased effort to regulate prediction-based trading following a lawsuit with Intrade. The SEC said that Banc De Binary stated in 2012 that half of its 250,000 investors were based in the US. However, the North American Derivatives Exchange is the only such service authorized by the US government to operate in the country. Banc de Binary states that it has stopped offering its services to US residents.

From 25 February 2013, Banc De Binary is registered "subject to limited regulation" by the U.K.'s Financial Conduct Authority.
