Malta is internationally recognised as a brand denoting excellence in financial services. It offers an attractive cost-effective base for banks, wealth managers, fund managers, fund administrators, international pension scheme providers and other financial firms looking for an EU-compliant, yet flexible, domicile.
The country’s financial sector has grown rapidly in the last few years, and is now a major force in the economy, contributing 12% to GDP. The Government’s ambition is for the sector’s contribution to GDP to rise to 25% and for Malta to become the leading regional centre of excellence in financial services by 2015.
