Is Quotex legal in Kenya?
The CMA licenses online forex brokers in Kenya. Some global brokers hold a CMA licence, but many do not — check the CMA's register of licensed non-dealing/dealing forex brokers.
Quotex does not hold a Capital Markets Authority licence specifically for Kenya in our records, so Kenyan clients are typically served through Quotex's international/offshore entity. That means you rely on that entity's regulation rather than local Kenya protection — check which entity you're signing up with.

Before you trade from Kenya
Laws change and are enforced differently — this is general information, not legal advice. Always confirm the current rules with Capital Markets Authority and verify which Quotex entity serves Kenya. Trading Forex/CFDs is high-risk and can lose all your capital.
