Thanks to this political, social and economic stability and their tax neutral jurisdiction; The Cayman Islands has its own Stock Exchange (The CSX) which is recognised as a leader in the offshore market. |

In terms of taxation, there are few places left in the World which are able to offer such a generous array of financial advantages and incentives as the Cayman Islands. There is no direct taxation in the Caymans meaning – amongst other advantages – that there is no income tax, no capital gains tax, no gift tax, no property tax, no corporation tax, no rates and no inheritance tax. |

“I would encourage the media to take note of the positive performance indicators” |
