The recent 'Gibraltar Day' events, organised by Gibraltar Finance in the City of London, showcased the potential of Gibraltar's Finance Centre as a strategic base for UK-based businesses. Targeting the City's firms, these events highlighted Gibraltar's role as a hub for financial and business activities, emphasising its appeal to the UK market.

Gibraltar offers numerous benefits for UK firms considering basing all or part of their operations in this British Overseas Territory. 2024 brings with it General Elections in the UK and that means there's uncertainty over fiscal affairs, such as potential corporate and personal tax rate rises that could affect businesses.
