An online user using the pseudonym “ChimeraZ” claims to have published 11,173 records linked to the French financial markets authority, although 11,000 may not correspond to distinct individuals or financial products. The sample mainly contains information about funds, their managers, regulatory authorizations and addresses, with no evidence of passwords, personal bank details or investor data. Some of the material may have come from the AMF’s public GECO database, but the exact origin and full contents of the file have not been established. No available evidence demonstrates access to the regulator’s internal or confidential systems.
