CySEC investment firm in Cyprus

About This Company

EUR 500,000 turnover triggers a graduated surcharge on top of the fixed annual supervisory fee, which ranges between EUR 5,000 and EUR 10,000 depending on the firm's initial capital category. The variable fee begins at 0.75% up to EUR 1M and decreases to 0.0975% above EUR 10M, subject to an aggregate cap of EUR 150,000. Regulated firms face further recurring charges of EUR 3,000 if offering CFDs and EUR 2,000 when deploying algorithmic trading systems. Initial application fees under Law 87(I)/2017 include a EUR 7,000 lump sum for core investment activities, EUR 25,000 for operating an MTF or OTF, EUR 500 per ancillary service, and EUR 2,000 for algorithmic trading. The authorisation can be passported across the EU/EEA. CySEC oversees compliance from Nicosia, listing 248 entities of this type as of 2026-09-24. The buyer checks the regulator's web portal to inspect the entity's supervisory status, approved domains, and licence grant date. In practice, acquiring a qualifying holding reaching 10%, 20%, 30%, or 50% requires formal filing with CySEC under Sections 12 and 13 of Law 87(I)/2017.
