These various standards will most likely affect the degree of difficulty and financial expense to which you will be exposed. Fionza Consulting can advise you on a jurisdiction that best fits the scope of your prospective activities that meets your budget.

Considerations in selecting a Forex Brokerage License

When selecting a jurisdiction for a forex brokerage license, you should consider the number of important factors that are applicable in each specific brokers case, as regulatory requirements and costs of getting a brokerage license differ substantially. The following factors should be taken into consideration:

  • Minimum capital requirements
  • Time frame for processing the application and getting the license
  • Requirements in regards to minimum personnel, availability and their qualifications
  • Taxes and office running costs in a specific country
  • Compliance and other regulations which may restrict your business operations
  • Technical and IT requirements
  • Other legal requirements which may affect your business
  • Reputation of the jurisdiction where you apply for forex broker licensing

You can not obtain the ideal option for all of the above listed characteristics, but you must make a sensible value for time and money selection, while making your decision as to where to apply for a forex brokerage license.
