Belize Banking Score Card: How Do We Rate?
Belize is a leading Central American international banking jurisdiction. In addition to commercial banks that serve local customers, Belize has developed a small but growing community of international banks, serving customers from around the world in a variety of currencies.
Legislation such as the International Business Companies Act of 1990, the Offshore Banking (Amendment) Act of 2002, the Money Laundering Prevention (Amendment) Act of 2002, and the Trust Act of 1992 have officially established Belize as one of the leading international banking jurisdictions worldwide, incorporating the most secure features of international instruments instituted in Hong Kong, Panama and Cayman.
