When is a financial licence required?

A financial services licence is necessary when a financial company intends to provide its services to third parties, for example the general public. This licence ensures that the company meets the regulatory requirements and standards set by the relevant financial authority.

By obtaining a financial services licence, a company demonstrates its compliance with the regulations governing the financial industry and its commitment to conducting business in a responsible and transparent manner.

Does economic substance apply to licences?

Yes, it is essential for all licences to be compliant with the Economic Substance Act. The Economic Substance Act is a legislation that aims to ensure that companies operating in certain types of activities demonstrate adequate economic substance within the jurisdiction where they are licensed.
