May 17, 2024, Ebène: On Thursday, May 16, 2024, Intercontinental Trust Ltd (ITL), a leading player in the arena of business management and fiduciary services in Mauritius, organised a webinar entitled ‘Doing Business and Residency in Mauritius’. The online event was held in collaboration with the Economic Development Board (EDB) of Mauritius.
The webinar was moderated by Françoise Chan, Executive Director at ITL, and the speakers were Willem du Preez, Executive Director at ITL and Kashish Jadoo, Lead Business Analyst at the Silver Economy Cluster of the EDB Mauritius.
During the webinar, speakers explored the specificities of trade in Mauritius, going as far as to examine the different options available to foreigners wishing to establish a business and settle in Mauritius.
Françoise Chan, Executive Director of ITL, highlighted the importance of the webinar: “In an ever-changing economic landscape, it is essential for businesses and individuals to stay informed of the opportunities offered in Mauritius. Through this collaborative effort with the EDB, the objective is to raise awareness and equip individuals with the knowledge and resources necessary to capitalise on the economic potential of Mauritius.”
Willem du Preez, Executive Director of ITL, and head of the South African representative office, echoed this sentiment, emphasising: “As a leader in the field of business management and fiduciary services, ITL is committed to transparently facilitating commercial transactions and re-location for our clients. By collaborating with the EDB, we reaffirm our commitment to provide end-to-end solutions.“
Kashish Jadoo, Lead Business Analyst of the EDB Silver Economy Cluster, highlighted: “Mauritius has firmly positioned itself as a jurisdiction conducive to business development thanks to its favourable regulatory framework, its stable political and economic conditions as well as its secure environment. Mauritius has also been recognised by relevant global institutions such as the World Bank, the OECD, the European Union and the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) for its compliance with international norms and standards. In addition, Mauritius has all the necessary ingredients and infrastructure to accommodate global citizens considering relocating and retiring in a pleasant environment. That being said, I believe that the webinar was a platform to inform the audience about the multitude of opportunities available in Mauritius and how they can be leveraged for success.”
The session concluded with a series of questions and answers with the participants, providing the opportunity to delve deeper into the topics covered during the webinar.
