Mutual Funds in The British Virgin Islands are regulated under law and Securities and Investment Business Act, 2010. A BVI Investment Fund License can be issued for three types of mutual funds: A public fund, a private fund or a professional fund. There are certain exemptions for funds registered in exempted jurisdictions which can register as foreign funds. For businesses which are seeking services to the general public, it is recommended that they obtain the public fund license.The first step for obtaining a BVI Investment Fund License is to register a local BVI Business Company or a Limited Partnership or Unit Trust. In most cases, a BVI Business Company is the preferred form of incorporation. The formal application for a license has to be made to the British Virgin Islands Financial Services Commission. Prior to applying for a license, an Investment Fund must have an investment manager, an administrator, a custodian, and an auditor. The investment managers must be licensed under the act. The applicant also has to prepare a prospectus for the fund for the application process. It is also required to have an authorized representative in the British Virgin Islands. The fee for an application for a license is $1000. After completion of the application process, the Financial Services Commission will issue a certificate of registration. An annual fee of $1500 also has to be paid every year to renew the license.If you are interested in learning more about a BVI Investment Fund License and how it can help your business, please contact us and one of our dedicated team of experienced professionals will assist you through the entire process of obtaining a BVI Investment Fund License.As a full service Global Law Firm focused on global I-gaming, Financial Services, Licensing, Asset Management, Securities, International Business & Tax; we value hearing from you, no matter where in the world you are.

Thanks for the A2A.On a high level, until the efficiency, effectiveness, enforcement precedent, and familiarity of onshore venture investment laws are on par with domicile in the US, Cayman, BVI, etc, onshore UAE will be uncompetitive in attracting venture capital funds to domicile there. The easiest measure would be adopting common law for venture investments and not attempting to regulate the investment thesis and strategy of the fund. This would attract foreign and domestic venture capital funds, which are currently domiciled and put to use mostly in other countries and sometimes free zones. This coupled with a relatively stable market, good macro indicators, and no taxes could be a boon to the UAE economy.Taking the stated agenda points one-by-one:“in the event that the value of assets under management does not exceed Dh180 million, it obligatory for a business to draft annual report summary. Its exposure to risk still should not exceed the fund’s net asset value.”it is unclear what this means in application. Generally speaking, adding regulations on how to run and manage the fund will make funds choose to domicile elsewhere where they can have more control.“The fund should invest not less than 70 per cent of its assets in one or more of the following domains:1-Lending new or troubled projects by not more than 30 per cent of its assets (or participating in these projects).2-Equity instruments issued by unlisted companies in the market or other instruments issued by those companies or subsidiaries.3-Units of other venture capital funds provided that investments should not exceed 10 per cent of its assets.4-Lending businesses mentioned above by not more than 30 per cent of its assets provided that the fund should be an investor in the business of that instruments.”What value does a government entity add in outlining how to design each fund’s investment thesis and control allocation of funds? How will they regulate and manage this process? What administrative burden will it add for venture capital funds. Overall, I would say that it’s an unnecessary use of resources (human and capital) to attempt to regulate funds in this way and funds will be discouraged and domicile where there is less control.“The second obligation is that the fund’s investments should not exceed 30 per cent of its assets in the investments that the Open public investment fund (Emirates UCITS) is allowed to invest in. In case of investing abroad, the fund should committee to the above mentioned obligations.”This negates or hinders the application of the previous rulings.“The article No. 4 lists another three obligations the fund should commit to including conducting regular evaluation to the fund’s assets and units (at least one time a year), issuing an annual report that involves the fund’s investments, activities, loses”This is fairly standard and as long as it doesn’t create an undue financial or administrative burden on VC funds, it can’t hurt.“and profits and the percentage of fund’s borrowing or collaterals should not exceed its assets.”How are they distinguishing between a venture capital fund and an SME lender?Or an investment-licensed company and a venture capital fund? There are still many questions of how this will be applied.All in all VC thrives in a landscape where they’re allowed to be agile, apply their own insights, and focus on investments rather than compliance, so I don’t think these legal changes will attract more venture capital onshore. Again, we will see how it gets applied.

Nowadays, it is very hard to find a decent broker because a lot of them are based on fraudulent schemes, deceiving people to obtain money from them.The iForex broker has been operating on the market for more than 20 years. It is a company with great experience, and the conditions offered to the clients are pretty good. In the review, I will try to give my opinion about this brokerAbout the company, licenses and regulationEstablished in 1996, it was then that a group of practising traders and bankers created the iForex brand. 2004 is the key year, after which the broker began to develop by leaps and bounds, opening representative offices around the world.The structure includes:Formula Investment House Ltd - deals with investment issues, the activity is licensed by FSC BVI (Virgin Islands Regulator);iCFD Limited is another investment company, but its operations are already being carried out in accordance with the requirements of Cyprus CySEC;Szolgaltato Zrt. - in this case, we are dealing with an investment company operating in accordance with the requirements of the Hungarian central bank. The license is obtained from this regulator.Everything is standard - they promise a high level of service, reliability and ease of trading, which is extremely important when you want to choose a reliable broker.Trading conditionsIn this iFOREX review, we should not ignore trading terms and conditions which are essential for every brokerage company. As for trading conditions, there are several essential things you should pay attentiona minimum deposit of $100;You can trade on Forex, the stock market;leverage up to 1:400;there is no margin call, so customers can use their own funds 100%;there is trade in 1 click;spread starts from 2 points;it is possible to disable the swap and not pay for transferring the position to the next day;You can work with currency pairs, indices, stocks, contracts for difference.iFOREX com has the opportunity to order a diamond training package, which will include all the training materials, all kinds of support from the broker, etc. For this, you need to top up your account with at least $5000.

Depending on which country you are a resident of, the available deposit methods may differ.The same methods are available for withdrawal; funds are withdrawn only to those details from which they entered the trader's account. The timing of the application broker does not specify.Analytics and trainingOn the website, you can encounter daily reviews and news to enhance your knowledge, and there is also a service of trading signals.On the English version of the site, there are more sections with analytical materials; there are video materials, analytical reviews. It is particularly beneficial for those who are just starting and have no previous experience in forex trading.There are several suggestions for training:You can order several packages with training materials;It is possible to take 1-on-1 training with an iForex analyst;there is a section with training materials in your account, but most of them are not available to customers who have not replenished their account.ConclusionIn general, I think the broker is pretty much reliable and offers perfect service to clients. We should also keep in mind the establishment of iFOREX, which has almost 25 years of experience under its belt. It is no scam at all and deserves attention.
