Financial Services

Malta has a thriving financial services sector which has been meticulously developed throughout the years since the enactment of a comprehensive legislative framework way back in 1994. Malta’s status as a full member of the European Union since 2004 and its EU compliant legislation together with the pro-activeness and approachability of the regulator, amongst many other factors, make Malta an ideal jurisdiction where to domicile and operate financial services business. The jurisdiction continues to innovate itself with new regulatory structures being developed to meet the industry’s demands and actions taken to develop the island as the Fintech Centre of choice.
