Overview

"Originally published in the pre-EU-accession period, this edition of ""Doing Business with Malta"" has been updated to take account of the post-accession changes to the legal and fiscal environment. It remains a definitive appraisal of the economic system and investment climate, including an examination of the legal structure and business regulation, information on the financial sector and unique best practice on all aspects of trading with and investing in Malta. As Malta's former 'fortress economy' has now been greatly diversified, the guide also provides an overview of key sectors of trade and investment. Malta is a fast-growing economy, where GDP has been increasing at around 3.7 per cent annually since 1995."
