CySEC investment firm in Cyprus

About This Company

Closing without CySEC non-opposition suspends voting rights and risks statutory penalties under Sections 12 and 13 of Law 87(I)/2017 and MiCA Article 83. Buyers must confirm all statutory thresholds before completing share transfers. Qualifying holdings reaching or crossing 10%, 20%, 30%, or 50%, or yielding subsidiary control, trigger a statutory assessment period of 60 working days, subject to a 20 working days interruption (or 30 working days for non-EU entities). CySEC assesses buyer reputation, financial soundness, AML risks, and fit-and-proper standards.

Due diligence demands independent cross-checking of the CySEC public register. Online entity cards show the official legal name, licence number, licence grant date, company registration number (HE number), approved internet domain names, and supervisory status (Active, Suspended, or Under Examination for voluntary renunciation). Verification must confirm whether approved permissions match intended commercial activities: reception and transmission of orders, execution of orders, dealing on own account, portfolio management, investment advice, underwriting, placing, or operating an MTF. Annual fees between EUR 5,000 and EUR 10,000, turnover surcharges, and passporting status across the EU/EEA should also be audited.
