  • Select the right license based on your products, markets, and capital
  • Navigate CNBV and SHCP regulatory requirements with confidence
  • Connect your Mexico entity with U.S. or Puerto Rico-based banks or IFEs

Launch Your Financial Institution in Mexico

SOFOM, SOFIPO, SOCAP, Fintech Licenses, Credit Unions & More – We Help You Build It Right

We structure and license every type of non-bank financial institution (NBFI) in Mexico. From fintech platforms and lending entities to community-based financial cooperatives and regulated investment firms, we provide everything you need to launch a compliant, scalable operation.

Why Mexico? Why Now?

Mexico is one of Latin America’s most dynamic financial markets—offering strong regulatory institutions, cross-border access to the U.S. and Latin America, and deep unmet demand for credit, savings, and digital services.

We help you leverage Mexico’s non-bank license ecosystem to:

  • Enter a market of over 120 million people
  • Connect with U.S. and Puerto Rico financial structures
  • Serve SMEs, fintech users, crypto investors, and unbanked consumers
  • Operate with full CNBV oversight or lighter frameworks depending on your needs
