Capacity Africa is a boutique Enterprise Governance, Risk and Compliance (eGRC) services provider, delivering turnkey regulatory and operational solutions to companies across various industries. We specialize in the setup and management of Financial Services Provider (FSP) and Over-The-Counter Derivatives Provider (ODP) licenses, in accordance with South Africa’s Financial Markets Act (2012) and the Financial Advisory and Intermediary Services Act (2002). Our work particularly supports the booming sectors of online CFDs, cryptocurrencies, and derivatives on the African continent.
We provide end-to-end services for reputable clients, helping them navigate an increasingly complex regulatory landscape. Managing eGRC can be costly and time-consuming — we simplify the process with efficient, cost-effective, and tailored solutions focused primarily on the financial services industry.
