amnis is regulated as a payment institution in the EEA and is, as such, under the supervision of the Banking Supervision Section in Liechtenstein (FMA). The client funds, the total balance on the account, are insulated against a bankruptcy of amnis and are held at banks with an A+ Rating from Standard & Poors. The client money held by AMNIS Europe AG is not only segregated and insulated against bankruptcy of amnis but also secured by the Deposit Insurance in Austria. In the unlikely event of a bankruptcy of amnis and the bank, the deposit insurance scheme protects client assets against a loss of up to the amount of EUR 100 000 per client.

In Switzerland, amnis is supervised by the VQF within the framework of the Money Laundering Act. The VQF is a self-regulatory organization recognized by the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA) and independently verifies compliance with the standards. Customer funds are systematically segregated from operational funds at all times in the interest of customers. In addition, customer funds are only held with partner banks with first-class credit ratings.
