The legal team at GreenHillCAI has announced that the company is actively pursuing legal remedies against Victorian Money Limited and BaFin, following what it describes as a “misleading and damaging” consumer warning issued by the German financial regulator.

The BaFin notice, published on May 22, 2025, alleged that GreenHillCAI was offering unauthorized financial services in Germany, placing the company’s name alongside Victorian Money Limited, the operator of victorian-fx.pro. The regulator justified this classification based on the claim that both websites shared a similar layout and the same tagline:
“Our Fund, Your Profit. Funding Promising Traders Worldwide.”

However, GreenHillCAI asserts that this is not evidence of any connection whatsoever—and instead, represents a serious failure of regulatory due diligence.

IP Theft Was Ignored in BaFin’s Evaluation

According to GreenHillCAI, the company was never contacted by BaFin for clarification or confirmation prior to the warning. This omission resulted in the regulator mischaracterizing GreenHillCAI as being involved in illegal financial operations alongside an unaffiliated entity. In reality, the company had already identified clear evidence of intellectual property theft, with GreenHillCAI’s website design, layout, and branding elements being copied by victorian-fx.pro without consent.

“There was no verification, no request for comment, and no formal inquiry. A tagline that could be used by any financial entity was the sole reason used to group us with an unauthorized platform,” the Legal Department at GreenHillCAI stated. “This is not responsible regulation—it is harmful negligence.”

GreenHillCAI is now seeking a full retraction from BaFin, along with the removal of the company’s name from the official warning.

Legal Proceedings Underway Against Both Parties

The legal team at GreenHillCAI has confirmed that separate legal actions have been initiated:

  1. Victorian Money Limited is facing legal claims for copyright infringement, unauthorized use of intellectual property, and reputational damage. 
  2. BaFin is being pursued for public misrepresentation, failure to follow regulatory due process, and publication of unverified claims causing direct harm to a regulated business. 

“We are demanding a formal correction, and if not received, we will proceed with full legal escalation both within the EU and internationally,” the legal team added.

Reassurance for Global Clients and Partners

Despite the BaFin announcement, GreenHillCAI remains fully operational and compliant within the jurisdictions in which it provides services. The company has implemented additional client communication protocols to ensure all inquiries about the matter are answered swiftly and transparently.

“Trust is the foundation of our relationship with every client. We have built our reputation on integrity, performance, and transparency—and we will defend that reputation with every resource available,” said the Compliance Unit at GreenHillCAI.

The firm is also advising clients to remain alert to cloned websites, phishing domains, and fraudulent entities that may attempt to exploit brand recognition. A full list of official channels is published on the GreenHillCAI website.

Public Clarification on BaFin’s Misstep

The BaFin publication is part of a larger list of consumer warnings typically issued for platforms that violate licensing laws in Germany. However, GreenHillCAI argues that it was unjustly included in the notice without being given the opportunity to verify its own corporate independence, operational legality, or prior record.

To date, GreenHillCAI has never been sanctioned, fined, or subject to legal proceedings in any jurisdiction related to client operations. The company views the BaFin notice as both false and defamatory, with real-world implications for clients, partners, and ongoing investor relationships.

A Final Word from GreenHillCAI’s Legal Department

“We take this issue with the utmost seriousness. We will not allow an administrative oversight to damage years of work, a global reputation, and the trust of thousands of clients. We expect a retraction. We expect accountability.”

In the meantime, clients, partners, and journalists can contact GreenHillCAI directly for documentation, legal clarification, or to verify all company-related activities.
