Setting Up A St. Kitts LLC – An Overview of the Process

  • The first step is to inform us of the desired name for the company. We will then conduct a check to ensure that the name is available for registration in St. Kitts and Nevis.
  • As part of the process, we will require some basic KYC documentation related to the company’s shareholder(s) to verify their identity.
  • Following this, we’ll ask for your input on the company’s structure and any specific requirements you may have for the new entity. This will help us ensure that the entity is tailored to your needs and meets all necessary compliance regulations.
  • Once we have gathered all the required documentation and information, we will submit them to the relevant registry for processing. We’ll keep you informed of the status of the application throughout the registration process and advise you on any additional steps that need to be taken.

Important Facts Pertaining to a Company Registration in St. Kitts & Nevis

  • The process of incorporating your new brokerage in St. Kitts & Nevis typically takes between 2 to 3 weeks, which is relatively fast compared to other jurisdictions

A Special Consideration for FX & CFDs Brokers Coming From St. Vincent

Due to the changes in St. Vincent, we’ve received an influx in questions pertaining to St. Kitts & Nevis. Essentially, there are 2 approaches to consider when establishing a new company in St. Kitts: re-domiciliation of the company or a fresh registration.

A re-domiciliation of the company will carry over all existing agreements, however, will take longer than a new registration. We estimate around 4 weeks are required to re-domicile a company from St. Vincent to St. Kitts and Nevis. A fresh registration, on the other hand, would be better for those looking to quickly establish a new company with limited time.

    【亞洲Prop Trading熱潮】經紀商轉型新趨勢，你準備好了嗎？

    亞洲Prop Trading熱潮加速來襲 近年來，亞洲地區的零售交易市場正快速成長，交易者的行為與偏好也出現顯著轉變。**Prop Trading（自營交易）**模式從歐美市場迅速擴散至亞洲，尤其在台灣、香港、新加坡、馬來西亞與菲律賓等地，Prop Firm 的吸引力正在穩步上升。 作為長期觀察亞洲經紀商發展與合規策略的顧問，我強烈建議有志拓展零售市場的券商，儘早布局自有品牌的Prop計畫。這不僅能提升品牌差異化，更能深化用戶參與與留存。 關鍵趨勢：為何亞洲經紀商該認真考慮Prop業務？ 1. 年輕交易者崛起，追求Gamified交易體驗 Z世代與千禧世代交易者不再滿足於傳統的下單平台。他們偏好有遊戲感、有挑戰性的交易環境，這讓Prop Firm中的「評估挑戰賽」、「晉級制度」與「分潤模式」高度吸引這群用戶，特別是在社群媒體與YouTube上透過KOL推廣，更是推波助瀾。 2. Prop Firm成為品牌與流量的雙引擎 傳統依賴Introducing Broker（IB）開戶導流的方式逐漸失去效力，反觀Prop模式能主動吸引有潛力的交易者報名參與比賽與培訓，大幅提高用戶質量與參與度。這些交易者一旦通過篩選，會自然成為長期交易用戶，也能成為品牌大使。 3. 合規與技術門檻下降，落地門檻更低 隨著第三方Prop技術提供商（如FTMO系統架構商）日趨成熟，以及經紀商能選擇設立於離岸持牌區域並與法律顧問合作設計合法契約架構，Prop的推動已經不再高不可攀。現在是進場的絕佳時機。 […]
