NEW YORK, USA

VG Markets Pty Ltd holds Australian Financial Services Licence No. 556530, extending the firm’s regulated operations across three jurisdictions

VG Markets today announced that it has successfully obtained Australian Financial Services Licence (AFSL) No. 556530. The licence establishes VG Markets Pty Ltd as the firm’s Australian-regulated entity and marks another milestone in the Group’s international regulatory strategy, extending its regulated operations across Australia, South Africa and Comoros.

The addition of an ASIC-authorised entity further strengthens VG Markets’ governance framework, institutional credibility and commitment to operating under recognised regulatory standards. It reflects the firm’s long-term strategy of building a diversified, multi-jurisdictional regulatory platform while maintaining consistent compliance, risk management and client protection standards.

VG Markets now operates through separately licensed entities across three jurisdictions:

• VG Markets (Pty) Ltd — authorised and regulated by the Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) in South Africa (FSP No. 54461);
• VG Markets Limited — licensed in Anjouan, Comoros (Licence No. L16087/VGM); and
• VG Markets Pty Ltd — holder of Australian Financial Services Licence (AFSL) No. 556530, issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC).

VG Markets has built its regulated footprint progressively — establishing its FSCA-authorised operation in South Africa, extending into Comoros, and now adding an ASIC-authorised entity in Australia. This international footprint reflects the firm’s strategy of growing within established regulatory frameworks while maintaining consistent compliance, risk-management and client-protection standards across each market it serves.

Commenting on the milestone, a spokesperson for VG Markets said: “Australia is recognised globally for its robust financial regulatory framework. Holding an AFSL represents another important milestone in VG Markets’ long-term growth strategy and reinforces our commitment to building a trusted, internationally regulated financial services group. As we continue expanding, compliance, transparency and responsible business practices will remain at the centre of everything we do.”

Looking ahead, VG Markets will continue investing in regulatory excellence, technology and product development while strengthening its international presence and delivering services under recognised regulatory frameworks.

Chicken Soup for the Soul’s Jack Canfield Pens Extensive and Deeply Personal Foreword to Matthew Cossolotto’s Harness Your PromisePower 

Canfield writes in his foreword: “When Matthew first told me about the heartfelt promise he made to his mother and that he was launching a special day called ‘Make a Promise Day’ on May 4th, I was hooked… There was something very attractive, almost magnetic, about this concept. And I say that as somebody who has been intimately involved in the personal development field for many years. I’ve seen and heard just about everything.”  

Jack Canfield, beloved author and speaker, has contributed an extensive and deeply personal foreword to Matthew Cossolotto’s new book: Harness Your PromisePower: Change Your Life, Transform The World. After spending decades studying achievement, purpose, and human potential, while inspiring millions through the Chicken Soup for the Soul series, The Success Principles, and other personal empowerment bestsellers, Canfield writes:

“There truly is something special about a promise, and I congratulate Matthew for shining a spotlight on this unique power through this book, his speeches, and his workshops.”

Canfield makes his emphatic endorsement of Cossolotto’s book unambiguous: “Being associated with Matthew’s inspiring ‘Make a Promise’ project is totally aligned with my life’s purpose.”

In his foreword, Canfield shares details about the purpose-defining promise he made to God at age 27. Canfield writes: “I promised I would spend the rest of my life learning and teaching others about wisdom and love.”

That promise eventually led him to collect inspirational stories that became Chicken Soup for the Soul, a publishing phenomenon that has grown to more than 250 titles, over 610 million copies in print, and translations into at least 43 languages.

In addition to Canfield’s foreword, Harness Your PromisePower features uplifting promise stories and insights from respected leaders and famous personalities, including Oprah Winfrey, Tony Robbins, Lewis Howes, Todd Newton, John Assaraf, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Lisa Nichols, Brendon Burchard, and many others.

Readers of Harness Your PromisePower will learn about:

• Inspiring promises stories from real people, some famous and many not-yet-famous.
• How a promise is like a goal on steroids and why you should turn goals or New Year’s resolutions into heartfelt promises.
• The G.P.S. Success Formula: From Goals to Promises = Success.
• 7 tips for making and keeping promises.
• Promise stories that appear frequently as plot devices in literature, children’s books, TV dramas, and movies.
• A Promise a Day: 30 Days to a Promising Future, including The Top 10 Promises for a SUCCESSFUL Life.
• An innovative proposal for an annual “holiday” called “Make a Promise Day” on May 4th – the only holiday dedicated to personal empowerment, goal achievement, and integrity enhancement.
• And much more…

Cossolotto’s Harness Your PromisePower is rooted in the author’s make-or-break promise to his dying mother the last time they were together. He promised that he would finish writing the book she had encouraged him to write and dedicate it to her memory. She looked up at him and said: “You do that, Matthew. You do that. This makes me very happy.”

Cossolotto kept that promise. 

“Doing so,” he continues, “opened my eyes to the unparalleled power of making a promise. That promise put me on my current path as a personal empowerment author and speaker. My mission is to spread the amazing power of making a promise to millions of people around the world.”

Cossolotto adds: “I’m thrilled to share these empowering ideas and uplifting stories with readers and audiences in the United States and around the world. And I’m deeply indebted to Jack Canfield for expressing his strong support for my book and my PromisePower concepts.”

Canfield closes his foreword by encouraging readers to identify goals important enough to become promises to themselves, to God, or to someone they care deeply about.

“Because when all is said and done, we’re left with that simple truth: A promise is a promise. So, choose your promises wisely… and make sure you keep them.”

About Matthew Cossolotto

Matthew Cossolotto’s high-profile communications career spans the corridors of power and influence on both sides of the Atlantic, serving as a speechwriter for top officials at NATO headquarters in Brussels, the Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, the Chancellor of UCLA, senior executives of several Fortune 100 corporations, and as a legislative aide to former Congressman Leon Panetta.

As a guest speaker, workshop leader, and speech coach, he has shared his ideas and expertise with a wide range of domestic and international audiences, including corporations, associations, government agencies, conferences, schools, community groups, and nonprofits/NGOs.

Cossolotto has created the Triad Empowerment System fueled by three interconnected topics: Habits, Speaking, Promises. These topics are reflected in his personal empowerment trilogy of books: The Joy of Public Speaking, Harness Your PromisePower, and the forthcoming Harness Your HabitForce which deals with the seven habits of SUCCESS and FAILURE. Cossolotto’s books and Personal Empowerment Programs (PEPTalks) are all animated by a core concept: Success is an inside job.

LONDON, UK

At the end of the day, our coin holders are the foundation of everything we do. You can choose to participate however you want—hold, build, or move through to cash positions and all the way to the end of things—but the key principle is that value and opportunity must always flow back to the people who stood with us from the beginning.

THIS PROGRAM IS BEING BUILT FOR OUR COIN HOLDERS

The UK Financial Ltd Launchpad Series™ is not being created simply to launch more tokens. It is being developed as another way for UK Financial Ltd to create opportunities for the people who have supported the Maya Preferred Project and remained with the company throughout its eight-year history.

Subject to the final structure of each launch and all applicable legal, financial, and regulatory requirements, UK Financial Ltd plans to use proceeds generated through the Launchpad Series to support the company’s ecosystem and coin-holder programs. This may include future cash distributions, token distributions, or other forms of participation for eligible holders.

Any such benefit would be in addition to programs the company has already established or announced, including:

• The Maya Preferred Retirement Plan Program.
• The historical 72-month MAYA3 token-distribution program for eligible Maya Preferred Project coin holders.
• Complimentary token distributions connected to new UK Financial Ltd projects and managed partnerships.
• Additional holder-focused programs being developed throughout the company’s expanding ecosystem.

UK Financial Ltd does not merely discuss supporting its coin holders. The company has a history of taking action when its community has faced serious problems.

When certain holders mistakenly transferred coins to incorrect addresses, the company worked to resolve those situations and, where possible, protected the holders from losses caused by their own mistakes.

During the COVID-19 period, when the company experienced loss of access to wallets and related assets, UK Financial Ltd restored the affected Maya Preferred holdings to its coin holders. These were not low-value tokens. At the time, Maya Preferred was publicly displaying extraordinarily high market prices, yet the company still stood behind its community and replaced the affected coins.

UK Financial Ltd maintains records and transaction evidence supporting these actions.

This history matters because it demonstrates the principle behind the new Launchpad Series:

Coin holders come first.

The first platform selected for the UK Financial Ltd Launchpad Series™ is the Moonshot app. Moonshot was chosen because of its ease of use, accessible token-creation process, and active community of creators and participants.

Within the next several days, UK Financial Ltd plans to create the first token in the series through the Moonshot app. The new token will be called the UKFL Moonshot Token, establishing the first entry in the UK Financial Ltd Launchpad Series™ and marking the beginning of the company’s planned expansion across multiple token-launch platforms. Additional details regarding the token’s symbol, total supply, circulation structure, eligibility requirements, and launch date will be released by UK Financial Ltd.

UK Financial Ltd plans to introduce multiple projects through the Launchpad Series, with each launch designed around limited supply, controlled circulation, community participation, and the company’s long-standing commitment to its existing holders.

For eight years, UK Financial Ltd remained focused on building rather than seeking constant attention.

That period is ending.

The company is no longer remaining quiet about what it has built, what it has done for its coin holders, or what it intends to accomplish next.

The UK Financial Ltd Launchpad Series™ represents a new chapter—not only for the company, but for the people who believed in the Maya Preferred Project from the beginning.

This series is being built for them.
