The Ministry of Financial Services and its related entities have
instituted a number of changes to increase efficiency of its
operations to better support the work of the financial services
industry in the midst of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
Most of the changes can be seen in the registration of company
details with the Registrar of Companies (RoC) and the filing of
intellectual property through the Cayman Islands Intellectual
Property Office (CIIPO). Both sections of the General Registry
department have increased the amount of staff able to work
remotely.
'Given the current environment, it is more important than
ever that the Ministry and its departments operate as efficiently
as possible', Financial Services Minister Tara Rivers said.
'Increasing the number of staff able to remotely assist with
registrations and filings is critical to facilitating business
continuity during these challenging times as the world grapples
with this pandemic,' she said.
