Olylim.com Review: Unlicensed CFD Platform, FCA Warning

Olylim.com is a platform that opens CFD accounts under the name "Olympus Capital Limited" behind a short-lived domain. The UK financial authority, the FCA, added the site to its list of unauthorised providers of financial services in June 2026; the Norwegian supervisory authority shared the same warning that month.

🔍 The Traces Olylim.com Left Behind

• The domain was registered on 19 December 2025 for a period of only one year; at the end of October 2026 the site does not respond.
• In an April 2026 archive record, the site presents itself as a CFD broker called "Olympus Capital Limited".
• The FCA entry gives 145 Leadenhall Street, in London's financial district, as the contact address; the FCA also notes that firms of this kind may use borrowed addresses.

🚩 How Is Money Lost on CFD Sites Like This?

In these schemes, after the account is opened an "account manager" steps in, and further investment is requested while a growing balance is shown on screen. When a withdrawal is requested, new payments come up under the names of commission, tax or verification fees. Unauthorised intermediation in leveraged transactions is prohibited under SPK Decision No. 8/297; the current list of authorised firms is on the SPK intermediary institutions page.
