Dear Executive,

The development of Malta as a successful location for family offices and HNWI’s is decisively a reality for those who want to preserve and protect family wealth cost efficiently.

Malta has developed as a sound financial center rated amongst the most resilient worldwide and supported by a pro-business financial services regulator MFSA.

It has build-up an efficient legal and fiscal framework as well as a set of comprehensive companies, foundations and trusts laws to establish structures and operations at a significantly lower set-up and administrative costs than in peer family office jurisdictions of choice.Certainty, security, confidentiality and servicing skills are paramount.

The Maltese Financial Services Authority, the regulator, is keen to ensure the development of Malta as a successful jurisdiction for family offices & private trustee structures.

The Maltese Government is introducing an innovative legislation for family businesses – The Family Business Act - with the scope of assisting the transfer from one generation to the next without compromising continuity and to encourage better governance and management of family businesses. This legislation is a first of its kind in Europe and internationally to support the already strong Maltese SMEs sector and encourage foreign family businesses to consider relocating their operations and enterprise to Malta. MFSA has designed and launched an attractive regulatory regime to cater for the financing of unlisted companies and SME’s through Malta based Loan Funds thus addressing Europe 2020 Strategy.

The conference is set to be highly focused and informative and will detail what is key priority on family’s agenda and those who deals with family wealth preservation.

Case Studies will be presented for those who are considering to set up there Family Holding Structure or Family Office in Malta
