To start with, we are not in the business of stealing money. We make money by providing incorporation, administration, management and accounting services to our clients. By even attempting to defraud one single client, we would lose all of our business. As a licensed company administration firm, our operations are monitored and regulated by Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC). Any dissatisfied client may complain directly to the CySEC. In that case our actions will be immediately investigated. If any wrongdoing on our part is determined, our firm will lose the professional services license, we will be out of business and may even be prosecuted. In this respect, the business of Administrative Service Providers in Cyprus is supervised and monitored as closely as that of banks or insurance companies, and we must comply with the same standards.
