00 — Markets

Fourteen markets. One regional thesis.

We didn't pick India, the UAE, all six GCC states, Switzerland, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Mauritius, Armenia, and Georgia because they were easy to enter. We picked them because between them they cover the routes capital, wealth, and trade actually take across Asia, the Gulf, and Africa — and because we already have practicing experience in every one of them.

01 — The footprint

Zurich to Jakarta, the Gulf to Mauritius — Dubai and Kolkata anchoring the middle.

02 — Operating hubs

Two hubs run the platform. Two more carry the deepest coverage.

INDIA
HEADQUARTERS

Kolkata-anchored. Our engineering and domain depth.

India is one of the largest and fastest-changing tax bases in the world — GST, corporate tax reform, and a wealth-creation curve that keeps outpacing the professionals meant to serve it. It's also where our founding team and our platform are being built.

UAE
GLOBAL HQ

Dubai. Our gateway to the GCC.

Corporate tax is still new in the UAE, and lightly precedented — which means the firms that build institutional knowledge first tend to hold that advantage for a generation. Dubai is also the base from which we'll run our wider Middle East coverage.

SWITZERLAND
FOUNDING MARKET

Where private wealth planning has always been decided.

Automatic exchange of information didn't end Swiss wealth structuring — it made precision non-negotiable. That discipline is exactly what our wealth-taxation and UHNI planning domains are built around.

SINGAPORE
FOUNDING MARKET

Our gateway into Southeast Asia.

A base for trade-corridor and cross-border structuring across the region, and a jurisdiction where regulatory clarity is a foundation we build on top of, not a constraint we work around.

03 — The extended network

Ten more founding markets, resourced from day one.

These aren't a future roadmap — they're where we already have a founder or domain lead with direct, practicing experience, resourced from the two hubs above.

05

Saudi Arabia

The GCC's largest economy is unwinding decades of oil dependence — and rewriting its tax code as it goes, under Vision 2030.

RoleVision 2030 diversification
06

Kuwait

One of the last GCC economies without broad corporate tax — a position that won't hold, and we're already resourced there.

RoleGulf wealth, light precedent
07

Qatar

LNG-funded sovereign wealth alongside a compliance regime that's still being written in real time.

RoleSovereign wealth & modernization
08

Bahrain

The Gulf's original offshore financial hub — decades of institutional infrastructure, now competing with newer Gulf challengers.

RoleLegacy Gulf financial hub
09

Oman

VAT and corporate tax both arrived recently — institutional knowledge here is still being built, and we're building it early.

RoleLate-stage GCC diversification
10

Malaysia

A regulatory framework built for Islamic finance, sitting on one of Southeast Asia's busiest trade corridors.

RoleIslamic finance & ASEAN trade
11

Indonesia

Southeast Asia's largest economy — and its most complex tax geography, where archipelagic scale meets fast-moving reform.

RoleLargest SE Asian economy
12

Mauritius

Decades of treaty infrastructure connecting Indian and African capital — built for cross-border structuring, not incidental to it.

RoleIndia–Africa treaty gateway
13

Armenia

A Caucasus tech and relocation hub that's grown fast in a few years, with treaty ties into both EU and EAEU trade frameworks.

Georgia

One of the most deliberately business-friendly tax regimes in the region — flat rates, minimal bureaucracy, and a bet on becoming a Eurasian gateway.

RoleLow-tax Eurasian gateway

04 — Why here, next

The criteria behind every market we add.

We don't expand by translating the same product into a new country. A jurisdiction earns a place on this page when three things are true at once.

01

Complexity is outrunning capacity.

Regulation is changing faster than the local advisory market can absorb it.

02

The flows are large enough to matter.

Meaningful wealth, capital, or trade actually moves through the jurisdiction.

03

We already have someone who's practiced there.

No market without a founder or domain lead with direct, hands-on experience in it.

Those three criteria are how all fourteen markets above earned their place — not a marketing map drawn first and staffed later. The same test now applies to whatever comes next: likely further into Africa along the Mauritius corridor, deeper into East Asia, or elsewhere in the Gulf periphery we haven't named yet.

We're not naming the fourteenth market here yet. When it clears all three criteria, it earns a place on this page — not before.
