Financial Services
Malta is a thriving European financial services hub. Its combination of a reputable regulatory framework with a business-friendly approach, has made it the jurisdiction of choice for leading international financial companies. As an EU member centred between Europe and North Africa, it is an ideal gateway to two thriving markets.
Malta’s financial sector has grown rapidly since EU accession. Its sophisticated legislative and regulatory system is often ahead of the curve, adapting seamlessly and effectively to ongoing developments in international best practice to ensure close alignment with the latest trends in the global market.
This reputation continues to attract various financial businesses, including hedge funds, insurers, fund managers, investment service providers and credit institutions. Other attributes drive this growth, including a skilled and English-speaking workforce, simple and efficient regulatory and company formation procedures and beneficial tax rates. The industry contributes over 12% to Malta’s GDP with recent projections indicating further expansion over the next five years.
