The Opportunity

START UPS

Not sure about setting up a financial services entity? Not sure if you need an Australian Financial Securities Licence (AFSL) if you do so?

We can help you decide by acting as a sounding board. We can help you scope out the opportunity, help with budget forecasts and building a business case.

If you decide to apply for an AFSL, we can work with your Lawyers to ensure you get the licence.
