Investment dealer licence in Mauritius

About This Company

Investment Dealer licence permissions derive from the Securities Act 2005. FSC code SEC-2.1B designates the most listed sub-category as Investment Dealer (Full Service Dealer excluding Underwriting). Atlas activity mapping covers order reception, transmission of orders, executing client orders, and dealing for own account. Territorial reach is domestic, so the authorisation does not passport. Regulators in Ébène supervise these entities directly. Statutory powers under the Financial Services Act 2007 authorise the Financial Services Commission to licence, regulate, monitor, and supervise conduct across securities, investment funds, insurance, pensions, and virtual assets. Unauthorised transfers are void under Section 23. Under Section 23 of the Financial Services Act 2007 and Section 16 of the VAITOS Act 2021, prior regulatory approval from the Commission is required for any issue or transfer of shares or beneficial interest, unless the transaction remains under 5% without creating a controller. Controllers are defined under Section 23 as persons holding not less than 20% of shares or voting power, or able to exercise significant influence, or holding board appointment powers. The buyer should search the public register by entity name to confirm the company's active authorization status, licence category, and licence reference number.
