SECP Streamlines NBFC Formation with Specimen MOAs for Various Sectors. The Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) has taken a significant step to ease the process of forming Non-Banking Finance Companies (NBFCs) by introducing sample Memorandum of Associations (MOAs) for several NBFC sectors.
On the SECP website, interested parties can now access specimen MOAs that cater to various NBFC incorporation needs. These include Private Fund Management, REIT Management, Asset Management, Pension Fund Management, Micro Financing, Discounting Services, Housing Finance, Leasing, Investment Advisory, Investment Finance, and Securities Adviser/Futures Adviser.
This facilitation is aimed at enabling sponsors to establish specialized businesses independently, eliminating the need for external consultants or middlemen.
Notably, the SECP has previously made available sample MOAs for over 100 industries on its website, enhancing public awareness and providing convenience for potential investors. With this latest move, the SECP continues its efforts to streamline processes and promote growth in the financial sector.
