Sound but market sensitive regulation is the hallmark of an outstanding international financial centre. In The Bahamas, policy makers and regulators are committed to creating an environment designed to encourage the continued growth of the sector through not only ongoing regulatory refinements and the enactment of market sensitive legislation, but efficiency and responsiveness.
Financial services represents not only the most globally integrated and sophisticated industry, but also the most highly regulated one as well. The jurisdiction’s commitment to meet internationally agreed regulatory principles has been especially evident in the last decade.
IBFS 2014, under the theme “Survival of the Fittest”, will explore how The Bahamas continues to evolve as a preeminent international centre for business and finance, adapting to the ever-changing regulatory environment as necessary. It will look also at changes on the financial horizon, and showcase the best practices and strategies for success adopted by this jurisdiction.
