AxiomSync is a GIFT City-focused advisory platform designed for businesses that require structured, regulator-ready support rather than generic incorporation or registration work. We work with fund managers, fintechs, financial institutions, broker-dealers, family offices, and international groups that need a clear path from entry planning to post-launch compliance and operational readiness. Our work spans the full lifecycle of a GIFT City presence — from early-stage structuring and authorisation support to compliance documentation, governance design, legal drafting, and ongoing coordination after launch.
GIFT City offers substantial strategic opportunity, but for many businesses the challenge is not deciding whether the jurisdiction is attractive — it is determining the right entry route, understanding the applicable regulatory pathways, preparing the documentation required, and meeting the compliance obligations that follow after licensing.
AxiomSync was created to address that gap with a more integrated model — one that combines legal, compliance, structuring, and operational thinking for businesses that need practical execution as much as high-level advice.
AxiomSync draws on the wider capabilities of 10 Leaves and Legability — two established group practices that have supported clients on market entry, regulatory authorisations, compliance frameworks, fund structuring, SPVs, and legal documentation across the DIFC, ADGM, UAE, Luxembourg, Singapore and Mauritius.

Legal-solutions capability supporting fund structures, legal documentation, commercial and corporate work, and cross-border structuring across the GCC, Europe, India, and Mauritius.
AxiomSync is supported by an experienced cross-border network of advisers, legal specialists, and structuring professionals drawn from the wider group. The emphasis is on senior-led work, practical execution, and documentation that can stand up to regulatory review.
