Island in the Mediterranean Sea – South of Sicily (Italy)
By Dr. David Edward Marcinko MBA CMP™
[Editor-in-Chief]
OK; I’ve written about hedge funds before, on this ME-P and in our www.MedicalBusinessAdvisors.com print publications for various textbooks, handbooks, white papers and journal. And, we discuss the concept in our online educational www.CertifiedMedicalPlanner.org program, as well. Some medical professionals love them, and some financial advisors use them in their work; others do not.
Of course, I’ve written frequently about my colleague – the now retired and newly anointed philanthropist and uber-hedge fund manager Mike Burry MD; ad nauseam.

But, now there is a new wrinkle on the island that I first visited about ten years ago, while on a working vacation
Rising Visibility
Malta–yes, Malta–has quietly leveraged the rising transparency imperative to attract hedge funds. There was a time when the quaint island sought to play on the traditional terrain, offering anonymity and a “laissez-faire regulatory regime,” not to mention very low taxes, as in no capital gains taxes and no taxes on dividends; all while English speaking and USD currency denominated.
Maybe back then, no more today, if this essay is to be believed.

Assessment
While many leading domiciles for offshore hedge funds remain in the Caribbean–notably the Cayman Islands, the British Virgin Islands, Bermuda, and the Bahamas–the island of Mata is drawing attention, especially from European funds.
