Strategically located at the crossroads between the Middle East, North Africa and Europe, Malta is a natural hub and boasts a strong GDP due to its open market economic policies, a multilingual population, a productive labor force, exceptional ICT infrastructure and finance clusters and low corporate tax. Malta’s GDP per capita is among the best in the world and thanks to its sound financial foundations, large infrastructure projects and consistent domestic demand, it has consistently grown over recent years.
Malta’s government has also developed a number of schemes and incentives in order to support large and small businesses, across its varied economic sectors. Following years of solidarity with the Middle East, and a central location between Africa and Europe, Malta offers the Middle East a prime opportunity to become an economic link between the Middle East and the International Community.
Globally, Malta ranks sixth in inward Foreign Direct Investment and amongst the top twenty among countries most likely to sustain economic growth over the medium and long term. Malta has a reputation for being safe, secure and welcoming to investors through favorable legislation and tax incentives. Penresa’s exclusive report on Malta reveals these opportunities and demonstrates how the island’s favorable investment landscape is driving its emergence as a leading nation in a post-pandemic world.
