Dienstleistungsbeschreibung

Fee-based financial investment adviser - applying for a licence

As a fee-based financial investment advisor, you provide professional advice on financial investment products to clients and receive a fee from them. If, on the other hand, you receive a commission from the provider of the financial product, please apply for a licence as a financial investment intermediary (see "More information"). If you are a holder of a financial investment intermediary licence, this will expire when the new fee-based financial investment advisor licence is issued.

As a fee-based financial investment advisor, you are limited to certain financial products by the so-called area exception of the German Banking Act. The licence covers (optionally) three product categories:

  • Units or shares in domestic open-ended investment funds, open-ended EU investment funds or foreign open-ended investment funds that may be distributed under the German Capital Investment Code,
  • Units or shares in domestic closed-ended investment funds, closed-ended EU investment funds or foreign closed-ended investment funds that may be distributed in accordance with the German Investment Code,
  • Asset investments within the scope of application of the Asset Investment Act, investment brokerage within the meaning of the German Banking Act (also participatory loans and subordinated loans, swarm financing),
Your permit may be restricted in terms of content and linked to additional regulations if this is necessary in the view of the authority for the protection of the general public or the contracting authorities. Under the same conditions, the subsequent inclusion, amendment and supplementation of conditions are also permissible.

Register of intermediaries
In addition to the licence, you must also be entered in the register of intermediaries. You can submit the application for this together with the permit application. Employees of fee-based financial investment advisors who are employed in fee-based financial investment advisory services must also be registered in the intermediary register. Registration takes place at the Berlin Chamber of Industry and Commerce for companies based in Berlin (see "More information").

In the case of partnerships (e.g. GbR, OHG, KG), the trader is each managing partner; in the case of legal entities (GmbH, UG or AG), the permit is granted to the company.
