The Cayman Islands’ reputation as a world-class financial centre is well known. It continues to be known as a leading jurisdiction in the offshore banking, investment funds, captive insurance and structured finance sectors and also appeals to clients seeking offshore aircraft and ship registration, or asset holding structures.

The Cayman Islands has long been one of the most prominent offshore jurisdictions through which to structure cross-border investment transactions. There are a number of key reasons for this including the stable political environment, the predictable and ethical court system (based upon the foundation of the widely regarded system of English law and with ultimate right of appeal to the Privy Council), the absence of taxes on income or capital gains, strict laws regarding confidentiality and the ability to obtain access to sophisticated regulators and service providers.
