Mauritius Funds and Collective Investment Schemes

Investment funds and their intermediaries in Mauritius are regulated by the Financial Services Commission under the Securities Act 2005 and the Securities (Collective Investment Schemes and Closed-end Funds) Regulations 2008, as amended.

Mauritius structures include collective investment schemes and closed-end funds. The appropriate legal form, fund category, offering arrangements and service providers depend on the investment strategy, target investors and applicable FSC requirements. A Protected Cell Company (PCC) or a Variable capital Company (VCC) may be relevant in suitable cases and you can contact us for more information.

Subject to Titan’s licence, client acceptance and an agreed engagement, Titan may assist with an initial structure discussion, incorporation, corporate-secretarial and registered-office services, and coordination of an FSC application with the appointed legal and regulated service providers.

Activities such as fund management, investment advice, custody, fund administration and asset management must be performed by organisations holding the required licence or approval. Titan will identify which elements fall within its own confirmed scope and which require a separate provider.

FSC authorisation, timing, investor acceptance and investment performance cannot be guaranteed. Prospective promoters should obtain independent legal, regulatory and tax advice before establishing or marketing a fund.
