A GBC is a corporate entity licensed by the Financial Services Commission (FSC) to conduct business outside Mauritius. It benefits from the country’s extensive tax treaty network and is taxed at a flat rate of 15%, with partial exemption of 80% on certain foreign-source income types, reducing the effective tax rate to 3%.

Once we receive all required KYC documents and your due diligence checks are cleared, a GBC or Authorised Company can typically be incorporated within 5 to 8 working days.

Ongoing obligations include:

  • Annual Financial Statements (audited for GBCs)
  • Tax returns to MRA
  • Renewal of FSC licence
  • Quarterly filing of management accounts for licensed entities.
  • Economic Substance requirements depending on activity.
  • AML/CFT compliance

Yes. We offer resident directors and registered office services as part of our turnkey solutions. These appointments ensure proper local governance and substance for your entity.

We have established relationships with major banks and assist clients throughout the onboarding process. Account opening usually takes 2 to 4 weeks, subject to the bank’s due diligence. We provide support in document preparation, introductions, and follow-up.

Mauritius entities conducting specific activities (like investment holding, leasing, fund management, etc.) must demonstrate local substance. This includes:

  • A physical office
  • Local directors
  • Qualified employees
  • Core income-generating activities (CIGA) in Mauritius

We assist with various FSC licences including:

  • Global Business Licence (GBC)
  • Authorised Company
  • Investment Dealer / Securities Dealer Licence
  • Fund Manager / CIS Manager Licence
  • Trust / Foundation
  • Payment Service Provider Licence

Yes. We provide:

  • NAV calculation
  • Registrar & Transfer Agent (RTA) services
  • Financial reporting
  • Investor communication
  • Regulatory filing (CIS, Closed-End Funds, etc.)

We combine deep regulatory knowledge with responsive service. Our team consists of chartered accountants, compliance officers, and corporate administrators with over 60+ years of combined experience. We provide a one-stop solution for structuring, licensing, compliance, and administration – with a focus on quality, transparency, and long-term partnerships.
