HOW DOES LABUAN COMPARE TO OTHER OFFSHORE JURISDICTIONS?

​

Unlike places in the Caribbean where many banks could raise some cause for concern, Labuan is home to a long list of familiar banks, from DBS to Bank of America and JP Morgan to BNP Paribas. It’s a serious financial centre, as opposed to some others where hack lawyers quickly churn out corporate paperwork like a mill and charge for introductions to questionable banks.

 

Laws protecting confidentiality and secrecy were included: public inspection of company files and records is restricted and there are prohibitions on disclosing shareholding and beneficial ownership, except where this is required by the special local banking acts.
