Like in most countries, the Financial Services sector is regulated in Mauritius. In comparison with European countries, the regulation is lean, less costly and much easier for SMEs to comply with. Providers of financial services find an excellent legal, financial and regulatory environment in Mauritius. See cost comparison below<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Financial Services (Consolidated Licensing and Fees) Rules 2008 set out the licensing framework that provides for a comprehensive codified list of financial services and financial business activities licensable by the Financial Services Commission.<\/p>\n

Holding and investment companies may be used advantageously in conjunction with Mauritian double tax treaties, in view of the nil or low withholding tax rates on interest and dividends provided for in the treaties. Most treaties also avoid capital gains tax in the country of investment. Such holding companies enable accumulation of tax free or low tax income for reinvestment.<\/p>\n

Special legislation permits segregation of assets and related liabilities within a company into cells and limits the claim of a creditor against assets of the cell it has contracted with.
