AT A GLANCE
Malta is made up of a collection of islands in the Mediterranean sea, south of Sicily. Malta, Gozo and Comino are the three main islands, with Malta as the biggest of the three. It’s been a republic since 1974, after a decade-long stint as an independent sovereign state after having been a British Crown Colony since the early 19th century.
Malta joined the European Union (EU) in 2004, and its official currency has been the euro (EUR) since 2008. Valletta is the capital city, and the official languages are Maltese and English.
The Maltese economy began to flourish in the 1980s, when it became known world-wide as a key freight trans-shipment point, tourist destination, and financial centre, with an expanding manufacturing sector.
Since joining the EU, Malta’s financial services industry has seen significant growth. This is a result of Malta offering tax efficiencies, strong legislative and regulatory frameworks, technical infrastructure, high-skilled workforce, and excellent service.
