Cyprus Investment Firms (CIFs) are entities licensed by the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) under three categories: Simple Licence, STP Licence and Market Maker. Selection depends on services and company structure.
Three licence types with shared fee structure for the application phase.
Reception, transmission and execution of orders for clients. Investment advice and portfolio management within the basic scope.
Straight-through processing of client orders without dealing on own account. Higher operational complexity than Simple.
Full investment services including dealing on own account, underwriting and operating MTF or OTF facilities.
CYAUSE professional fees to prepare and submit the application to CySEC.
+ VAT + Disbursements
Disbursements are applicable. They are recurring and depend on the licence type and the requested services. The minimum fee is €7,000.
Reports and filings provided so the CIF remains compliant with CySEC requirements. Cost depends on category and complexity.
Internal Capital Adequacy and Risk Assessment, required for ongoing CySEC supervision.
Periodic assessment of operational, market, credit and liquidity risks across the CIF.
Disclosure on capital, risk exposure and risk management aligned with prudential rules.
Quarterly Common Reporting framework data on capital adequacy and own funds.
Compliance documentation as required by CySEC for the CIF category in question.
The cost of additional services is quoted based on your specific requirements and the complexity of each report for your CIF category.
