Amicorp Group has further enhanced its service proposition in India after getting regulatory approval to operate under two licenses in Gujarat International Finance Tec-City ("GIFT City").
Amicorp now has a Trustee License and a Fund Administration License, meaning it is one of a select few providers that can offer end-to-end administrative support for fund managers, family offices, and institutional investors looking to direct investments through GIFT City.
