AMF
AMF, or Autorité des Marchés Financiers, is France’s regulatory authority responsible for overseeing financial markets, including banking, insurance, and investment services. Its role is to ensure these markets operate transparently, fairly, and securely, protecting investors and maintaining confidence in the financial system. The AMF enforces laws, supervises financial firms, approves financial products, and investigates misconduct. Think of it as a watchdog that makes sure financial companies follow rules to keep the economy stable and investors protected.
