Reading a trade licence: what our 25 activities mean for clients

Firm · 28.05.2026 · OS Capital Investments

A licence is more than a legal formality — it is the honest map of what a firm may and may not do for you.

OS Capital Investments L.L.C-FZ holds a Meydan Free Zone licence covering twenty-five financial activities. They range from own-account investment and investment in technological enterprises to brokerage in foreign-listed commodities, mortgage advice, credit review, debt collection and fiduciary custody services.

Why the scope matters

When a firm offers a service outside its licence, the client carries the risk. That is why every engagement we accept is checked against the licence first — and why the full list of activities is published, verbatim, on our capabilities pages.

The breadth is deliberate. Capital rarely needs one service in isolation: an enterprise raising finance also needs its credit reviewed, its collateral managed and its compliance counsel close at hand. Holding these activities under one licence lets those conversations happen in one place.

Equally important is what we are not: a bank, an insurer or a pension manager. Clients who need those services are referred to institutions licensed to provide them.
