The Financial Services Commission has issued a consultation paper (“the “Paper”) on 9 March 2021 proposing amendments to its regulatory framework to align with international best practices, with the goal of promoting Mauritius as an International Financial Centre and Capital Market destination. The amendments proposed serve the purpose of protecting investors, maintaining fair, efficient and transparent markets and reducing systemic risk.

Following the issuance of the Paper, the FSC is seeking for views and comments from the industry and public on the proposed amendments which can be found in the full communiqué HERE.
