Launch of Mauritius Finance
Article Published on March 18, 2021
Mauritius Finance (MF), a new platform regrouping key players of the finance sector such as management companies, banks, accounting firms and Stock Exchange of Mauritius amongst others, was launched on 10 February 2021. MF is the result of a merger between the Association of Trust and Management Companies (ATMC) and Global Finance Mauritius (GFM).
Further to the current position of Mauritius on the FATF grey list, the establishment of this platform further highlights the impending need to focus on reinforcing the use of existing laws and regulations to strengthen Mauritius’ position as a compliant jurisdiction.
MF aims at promoting constant dialogue and mutual cooperation between public and private parties, and serves the purpose of defending the interests of the Mauritian International Finance Centre on both the local and international fronts.
As one of the main players in the Global Business sector, representatives of Intercontinental Trust Limited, sit on the various technical committees set up by Mauritius Finance.
