Liechtenstein is an EEA member that applies ESMA-aligned retail rules through the EEA Agreement, with FMA Liechtenstein as the integrated supervisor for banking, insurance and capital markets. The country uses the Swiss franc (CHF) under a long-running customs and currency union with Switzerland. Liechtenstein hosts a sizeable wealth-management sector relative to its population. EU/EEA-passported brokers (CySEC, MFSA, BaFin) make up most of the cross-border retail offering; SEPA dominates funding.
