Why the Cayman Islands

Tier-1 offshore
at the crossroads of England and the USA

A British Overseas Territory, English common law, constitutionally enshrined tax neutrality and a regulator whose standards are recognized by leading banks and institutional investors around the world. This is not a "cheap offshore" — it is institutional.

  • Tax zero with a guarantee

    Tax Exemption Undertaking from the government: 20 years for Exempted Company, 50 years for LLC. Protected by the Tax Concessions Act.

    20 / 50 years
  • Institutional reputation

    Recognized by Tier-1 banks, prime brokers, AIFMD-managers. OECD-compliant, FATF-aligned, exchange under CRS / FATCA / CARF.

    Tier-1
  • English common law

    The Privy Council as the highest appeal. A specialized Financial Services Division of the Grand Court. Case law on trusts and funds.

    Common Law
  • Modern crypto regulation

    VASP Act 2024, Phase 2 licensing from 01.04.2025. 1,700+ DAO-foundations, 58% global crypto hedge funds, a new law on tokenized funds in 2026.
