What AMF Global does

AMF Global is a Cyprus-based financial services consultancy founded in 2012 and headquartered in Limassol, operating as AMF GLOBAL LIMITED, a privately held company. The firm serves regulated financial institutions across multiple sub-sectors — investment firms, asset managers, alternative and retail investment funds, forex and CFD brokers, payment and electronic money institutions, and crypto-asset service providers — with eight integrated service modules: Corporate Services, Licensing & Registration, Financial Services Advisory, Risk Management, Banking & Administration, Accounting & Financial Reporting, Legal Services, and Comprehensive AML & Sanctions Compliance. Its core proposition is multi-jurisdictional licensing support spanning 18+ jurisdictions including Cyprus (CySEC), UK (FCA), Australia (ASIC), South Africa (FSCA), UAE (DFSA/SCA), and offshore centres (BVI, Cayman, Seychelles, Marshall Islands, Vanuatu).

The firm operates on a professional services revenue model, billing clients through project-based fees for licensing and set-up work and through retained advisory relationships for ongoing compliance, risk management, and corporate administration. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct, with no disclosed channel partnerships or marketplace distribution; the firm engages clients through its in-house team supplemented by an associates network for specialized legal, audit, and accounting work. Technology is not the primary value driver — the firm's competitive position rests on the expertise of its professionals, regulatory relationships, and cross-border execution capability. The only notable proprietary technology is an internal AML onboarding tool using facial biometric verification, and the firm's website uses placeholder statistics ('0+ years on the market, 0+ practice areas') rather than disclosing scale metrics. Marketing is conducted principally through a thought leadership publishing programme covering EU regulatory developments (DORA, AIFMD II, AML reform, sanctions enforcement).
