Offshore Licensing & Target Market Compliance
ROTEX recommends assessing the exact products, target countries, client types, and activities before selecting Anjouan.
An offshore licence in one jurisdiction does not automatically authorize a broker to solicit clients in every country.
Cross-border solicitation and financial-services laws in each target market must always be considered separately.
Anjouan Forex Licence Process
A structured 7-step roadmap from business assessment to operational brokerage.
Business Model Assessment
Before starting the application, we evaluate forex & CFD products, target countries, retail vs professional clients, trading model (A-Book / B-Book / Hybrid), expected volume, ownership structure, directors, banking, PSP, and tech requirements.
Jurisdiction Assessment
We assess whether Anjouan fits your business model and compare it with alternative jurisdictions to match: Budget + Target Market + Regulatory Requirements + Business Model + Growth Strategy.
Company Formation
The AOFA framework provides for International Business Companies. Incorporation is conducted through a licensed registered agent (company name, shareholders, directors, beneficial owners, registered agent, corporate docs, due diligence).
Due Diligence & Documentation
The published AOFA process requires due-diligence information (certified ID, proof of address, CV, bank references, professional references, ownership structure).
Brokerage Licence Application
The licensing application is submitted through the registered-agent process. AOFA conducts a fit-and-proper assessment before granting the licence. ROTEX coordinates between client and licensing professionals.
Banking & PSP Setup
Once corporate and licensing structures are progressing, ROTEX coordinates financial infrastructure: Corporate Banking, Multi-Currency Accounts, IBAN Solutions, SWIFT, Visa/Mastercard, Local Payments, and Crypto Rails.
