Want to become introducing broker of Interactive Brokers...

[Flatworld]

We want to become introducing broker of Interactive Brokers...

but the Interactive Brokers require us to have broker license in other counties...

We heard from other people that Vanuatu Dealer License is no longer accepted by interactive brokers...

So I want to ask if someone in this forum know some Alternatives to Vanuatu Dealer License that we can use to fulfill the interactive brokers' requirement...

There is a licence for financial advisor only? How long will take?

You do not need a broker license. You need a license of financial advisor. It takes 2-3 months to obtain.

Conditions are different in each country.. For example: In Slovakia:
Office not needed - just any virtual address in case if any official institution needs to send you anything - it has to be a local address.
Staff not needed - but you need someone to make accounting, file tax returns, Keep all paperwork required by the law done..
Capital - minimum capital required by the law is 5000 Eur. But you do not need to have it in a real. Just declaration of having it is just OK.
There are only 2 problems which you have to solve:

1. Have a university diploma from economy and management + your CV has to show at least 5 years of practise in financial sector or a secondary school diploma from economic school + CV showing a 7 yers of practise in financial sector
2. You must pass exam asout financial market - in local language or in English..

There are companies who can provide a prsoon who has everything required by the law, but it costs some money..

If you want to go around but you are willing to pay some higher fees, there is a possibility to obtain a general financial license in Kazakhstan.. They just require their fee and having a local company there and having a CV with at least some practise in financial sector..

I heard about the "license" in Kazakhstan...I think it's not a license, but is a Registration~similar to Money Services Business (MSB) Registration in USA~

the registration ones are usually very simple & cheap, these service providers hope everyone thinks those are the same thing~to sell their service at very high price...just Information asymmetry~

“Registration as a financial service provider is not an official approval of an individual, business or organisation. It doesn't indicate that you're licensed or regulated in New Zealand or any other country.”
