SALVUS secures Mauritius licence for a leading global brokerage

SALVUS is pleased to announce yet another successful Investment Dealer (Full Service Dealer, excluding Underwriting) licensing of a major multi-asset brokerage firm by the Financial Services Commission (FSC) of Mauritius.

Serving over 3.5 million clients across more than 10 licensed jurisdictions, our client provides advanced trading infrastructure with access to over 12,000 instruments across 8 categories, including real stocks, ETFs, indices, currencies, and more. Their licence enables them to operate globally as principal and agent in securities transactions, while offering portfolio management and investment advisory services.

Mauritius’ strategic location and robust regulatory framework make it an ideal hub for a brokerage company to operate. Investment Dealer licence holders benefit from an 80% partial tax exemption on qualifying income, reducing their effective tax rate to approximately 3.4%, as long as they comply with core economic substance requirements.

“We are proud to support the expansion of this leading global broker into Mauritius,” said Hafeez Toofail, Partner at SALVUS (Mauritius) Ltd. “This milestone reflects our commitment to guiding clients through complex licensing processes worldwide.”
