Frequently Asked Questions
Can I buy an AFSL directly?
An AFSL cannot be bought directly; however, clients can purchase the entity that holds the AFSL. This means that while the license itself is not transferable, acquiring the company that possesses the license allows for the continuation of its operations.
What should I consider when buying an existing AFSL?
Key considerations when buying an existing AFSL include conducting due diligence, reviewing license authorisations, and understanding compliance obligations. It’s crucial to ensure that the AFSL has the necessary authorisations for the financial services you intend to provide. Additionally, be aware of any conditions attached to the license that may affect your operations.

The typical timeline for acquiring an AFSL through AFSL House can vary, but it generally takes around 3 to 4 months to complete the process.

Factors such as the complexity of the transaction and the specific requirements of the license can influence the duration.

Potential risks of buying an AFSL include hidden liabilities and compliance issues, which AFSL House helps to mitigate through thorough due diligence. It’s essential to review the financial health and compliance history of the entity holding the AFSL to avoid unforeseen complications. Engaging legal and compliance experts can further safeguard against these risks.
What happens after I purchase an AFSL?
After purchasing an AFSL, you must notify ASIC of any changes in management or business structure. This includes informing ASIC about new responsible managers and any changes to trading names or addresses.
