Making the complex simple Background
Malta has over the years gained international recognition of
being a reputable and robust financial centre. The island recently
experienced a rapidly growing and dynamic financial sector in which
it hosts a number of worldwide recognised group treasury companies.
Malta's strength as a hub for finance companies is based on the
island having an excellent business infrastructure, EU compliant
legislation, a sound banking system, a relatively low cost base, an
attractive fiscal regime and a highly skilled multilingual
workforce. Over the passage of time, the activity of a finance
company has moved from traditional loan arrangements to providing
more flexible terms of lending to meet the borrower's needs and
at the same time entering into sophisticated and tailor-made
financial instruments to hedge and mitigate for any financial risk
exposure.
