The Isle of Man

Situated midway between Great Britain and Ireland, the Isle of Man is an internally self-governing dependant territory of the English crown, although it is not part of the United Kingdom. Renowned for its political stability, the Isle of Man is home to the world’s oldest continuous Parliament, Tynwald, which was first established over 1,000 years ago.

Along with careful control by the Isle of Man Government Financial Supervision Commission combined with tailor-made insurance, banking and shipping legislation, the Island has, over the past two decades, established itself as one of the most well-regulated and responsible offshore jurisdictions, with legislation in place designed to offer maximum protection for investors and their assets without limiting the options available.
