IS THERE AN ADVANTAGE TO DOING BUSINESS IN OR FROM THE BAHAMAS?

 

Financial Services has been offered from The Commonwealth of The Bahamas since the 1930s.  As a developed, independent country with modern legislation to meet the needs of today's international client, The Bahamas has become a jurisdiction of choice for those seeking professional financial services.

 

The Bahamas is a stable Common Law jurisdiction and has been a full independent member of the British Commonwealth since 1973. It is one of the oldest parliamentary democracies in the Western Hemisphere (since 1729) and is based on the British Westminster system.

 

The Bahamas is recognized as a well regulated and compliant jurisdiction as per standards set by the International Organization of Securities Commissions [IOSCO] and the International Monetary Fund's Financial Sector Assessment Programme [FSAP].
