Every Nevis gaming license is contingent on passing a detailed fit-and-proper review. This isn't a formality — it's the regulatory cornerstone of the entire licensing process. We provide structured, hands-on support in preparing all required due diligence materials.

Due diligence is not a checkbox exercise — it's the regulatory foundation that determines whether your license application succeeds or fails. The Nevis Gaming Authority takes this process seriously, and so do we.
Our role is to eliminate uncertainty, avoid delays, and ensure full transparency at every stage of the review. With Apex managing your due diligence, you can be confident that every document, declaration, and verification is complete, current, and aligned with local compliance expectations.
