Doing Business in Anguilla

1. What are the current trends in general investments and what are the opportunities in Anguilla? 

Given the current worldwide situation, there are a lot of great investment opportunities in Anguilla. It remains a Covid free destination with many real estate investment opportunities not only in large hotels but also in villa purchases. In addition Anguilla has recently enacted the Special Economic Zones Act to promote business in the country.

Economic residence is also popular in Anguilla with the opportunity of ultimately obtaining a British passport.

Corporations, Foundations and Trusts are also sought after with cryptocurrency being the new area to watch.

2. What are the preferred vehicles to invest in the country? Any local incentives?

Anguilla remains a secure jurisdiction for high net worth individuals setting up Trusts and Foundations. The Anguilla Foundation is a particularly flexible vehicle which can offer clients almost everything that they desire.

Anguilla is currently allowing people to stay on the island for up to 12 months and work for their companies remotely. The incentive is to live in paradise whilst continuing the work they love in their own country.

3. How do you see the developments of foreign investments? In which sector particularly? What is the support offered by local authorities?

Anguilla has some of the most beautiful hotels in the world and therefore real estate remains a top investment area. In addition registered office facilities are available for corporations and with a completely electronic incorporation system in Anguilla, companies can be incorporated within 24 hours. The captive insurance market in Anguilla is also worth looking at.
