Licensing Information
 

“Being licensed and regulated is a major benefit for your business”
 

What is meant by the term Licencing?


In various countries and jurisdictions, governments have set up supervisory authorities to monitor and regulate the activities of companies operating within certain business sectors.

The prime task of every supervisory authority is to ensure as far as it can that those institutions which it licenses and regulates are, and remain, financially sound and competently managed so that they offer an efficient and reliable service to
their customers.

A licence will only be granted to an institution that meets the fit and proper criteria to operate and provide, in a transparent and comprehensive manner, all financial and other information about themselves.

How does this relate to OCRA?


OCRA has operated with uncompromising integrity, while satisfying the needs of our clients, since 1975.

The commitment to performing to global standards is evident at all levels of the organisation and throughout the wider group. These encompass matters such as:
  • Judiciously implemented operational procedures and standards
  • Consistent quality levels, as evident in our ISO9002 certification
  • Due care of client funds
  • Ongoing training resulting in high levels of expertise and competency
  • Professional indemnity insurance
  • Confidentiality
  • Disaster recovery plans
  • Compliance
  • The prevention of money laundering and crime
In those countries where our activities are regulated, we have obtained the appropriate licenses and are subject to regulatory review and inspections.
