FOR PAYMENT & ELECTRONIC MONEY INSTITUTIONS, INVESTMENT FIRMS, INVESTMENT FUNDS AND CRYPTO-ASSETS SERVICES PROVIDERS

We are here to guide you in finding the best jurisdictions and in complying with the relevant regulations.

Welcome to SALVUS Funds, a boutique advisory devoted to its clients, associates and partners.

Our team carries vast experience in all matters of licensing, compliance, internal audit, risk management, and operations for Electronic Money (EMI) and Payment Institutions, investment firms, investment funds, and Crypto-Asset Services Providers (CASP).

Our primary goal is to understand your specific challenges and overcome them by working together. We look at every task from a different perspective and that enables us to find solutions for you. Thus, we style ourselves as problem solvers. 

#StayAhead is our motto and it encapsulates our attitude and belief in how we should perform for us and for our clients. The idiom is a public pledge that unifies all our brand touchpoints and our source of inspiration for what strive to deliver.

We already mentioned styling ourselves as problem solvers – problem solvers for EMI, CASP, investment firms, investment funds, related M&A deals, licensing issues and MiFID compliance challenges.

Working with EMI, CASP, investment firms and investment funds, our team carries first-hand experience, in helping senior management and stakeholders with virtually any challenge the business might be facing.

Imagine our involvement ranging from supporting you in building new teams or strengthening existing teams through training and knowledge sharing to providing ad-hoc answers, or procedures and policies as needed.

We have been the go-to people in all matters relating to licensing, compliance, internal audit, risk management, and operations. If you are facing any challenges, talk to us, it will be our pleasure to prove our value.
