Significant Enhancements in Financial Services


What We Do

The vision is to be a globally respected financial services centre of excellence. Our mission is to continuously improve our platform for competitive, transparent, and compliant financial services.

  • Our work assists elected officials: The Ministry of Financial Services and Commerce (Ministry, or MFSC) assists elected officials in developing and implementing policies and legislation for financial services and commerce. 
  • Our work supports the local economy: Because financial services and commerce are the Cayman Islands’ primary economic pillar, our work supports the Cayman Islands’ economic growth and social stability. 
  • Our work supports global financial services: In keeping with successive Governments’ commitment to global AML/CFT and tax cooperation standards, our work also contributes to the stability of global financial services.
