Strategic Licensing Advisory
Establishing an Investment Advisory Company in Pakistan requires navigating a complex regulatory landscape overseen by the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP). At Javid Law Associates, we provide end-to-end support for firms seeking to secure their license under the Non-Banking Finance Companies (NBFC) Regulations. Our expertise ensures that your corporate structuring aligns with both commercial objectives and stringent statutory requirements.
Regulatory Framework and Compliance
The licensing process is rigorous, involving thorough due diligence by authorities. Our team handles the preparation of business plans, internal control manuals, and compliance frameworks to meet SECP standards. We assist with the necessary integration with FBR for NTN and ST registration to ensure your tax profile is audit-ready from inception.
| Phase | Focus Area |
|---|---|
| Pre-Licensing | SECP entity registration and capital adequacy planning |
| Submission | Document drafting, policy formulation, and application filing |
| Post-Approval | Operational compliance and annual regulatory reporting |
