A Widely-Endorsed Regulatory Regime
The most recent statutory independent review of the FSC highlighted that Gibraltar had a "good standard of financial services regulation" and a "regulatory regime developed to a good standard and staffed by competent regulators with a manifest determination to improve performance further." (Statutory Review Report, January 2005)
The most recent International Monetary Fund (IMF) assessment report noted that Gibraltar, "has established a robust, risk-based regulatory and supervisory framework." It continued, "Gibraltar has been a pioneer in the supervision and regulation of professional trusteeship and company service providers... authorities are to be commended for the resources they have devoted to international co-operation on money laundering and terrorist financing cases."
The Financial Action Task Force has also recently endorsed the anti-money laundering regime, including the regulatory environment, in place in Gibraltar.
The United Kingdom Government commissioned a review of financial regulation in the Crown Dependencies, comparing Gibraltar favourably with the Channel Island jurisdictions of Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man.
The US tax authorities have granted Gibraltar “Approved Intermediary Status”. This means that intermediaries in Gibraltar may certify clients’ residency status for withholding tax purposes.
